Abstract
Background: Injuries of the hip extensors are not uncommon, with those of the hamstrings being frequent among athletes. On the contrary, isolated injuries of the gluteus maximus muscle have been barely reported in the literature. Case Report: We present a case of a 63-year-old male water aerobics trainer with an acute tear of the right gluteus maximus tendon and describe the clinical presentation, imaging studies, surgical treatment, and functional outcome one year after surgery.
