Abstract:
There is no reference in the literature to the use of sonography in the diagnosis of muscular fibrosis. In this paper we report the sonographic findings observed in forty patients who had marked limitation of flexion of the hip joint and tightness and atrophy of the gluteal muscles from increased fibrous tissue in the gluteal musculature.
