Definition
side affected -contralateral to n. injury
Trendelenburg gait: downward tilting of
the hip on the non weight bearing
side due to inability of the gluteues
medius and minimus to abduct the hip on
weight bearing side.
Trendelenburg sign: Patients hip tilts down when the limb is not weight bearing(lifted up) |
