TRANSCRIPT

Gluteus Maximus GaitCause: Muscular weakness/paralysis of the gluteus maximus Description: Pelvis shifts anteriorly, while upper extremities and shoulders shift posteriorly to pelvis. The affected leg will always stay posterior to pelvis, while unaffected leg will stay anterior to the pelvis. This will result in a shorter step length with this gait.
