Gluteus minimus muscle (3D)

The video tutorial explores the anatomy and functions of the gluteus minimus muscle, a key player in pelvic stabilization and movement. It begins with an introduction to pelvic tilt and the role of the gluteus minimus, followed by a detailed look at its anatomy. The tutorial then delves into the muscle's functions, including thigh abduction, internal rotation, and pelvic stabilization during gait. The importance of these functions is highlighted, especially in preventing conditions like Trendelenburg gait. The tutorial concludes with a recap of the muscle's roles.
