    A depot injection, also known as a long-acting injectable (LAI), is a term for an injection formulation of a medication which releases slowly over time to permit less frequent administration of a medication.

  3. Intramuscular injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intramuscular_injection

    Intramuscular injections began to be used for administration of vaccines for diphtheria in 1923, whooping cough in 1926, and tetanus in 1927. [30] By the 1970s, researchers and instructors began forming guidance on injection site and technique to reduce the risk of injection complications and side effects such as pain. [8]

  4. Buttock augmentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buttock_augmentation

    The applicable techniques for surgical and correction include the surgical emplacement of gluteal implants; autologous tissue-flaps; the excision (cutting and removal) of damaged tissues; lipoinjection augmentation; and liposuction reduction—to resolve the defect or deformity caused by a traumatic injury (blunt, penetrating, blast) to the ...

  5. Deep gluteal syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_gluteal_syndrome

    The image-guidance is to increase accuracy of the needle placement and visualize the spread of the injected material. [3] Ultrasound-guided injections are the gold standard for differentiating deep gluteal syndrome from other sources of pain. [9] Diagnostic injections function in a similar way to deep palpation.

  6. Piriformis syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piriformis_syndrome

    An enlarged (hypertrophic) piriformis muscle may place pressure on nearby structures. The empirical evidence supporting this is that ipsilateral (same-side) piriformis hypertrophy is a common image finding in piriformis syndrome, [24] and that botox injections reduce symptoms (by paralyzing a muscle for months the muscle shrinks).

  7. Trendelenburg's sign - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trendelenburg's_sign

    Trendelenburg's sign is found in people with weak or paralyzed abductor muscles of the hip, namely gluteus medius and gluteus minimus. [1] It is named after the German surgeon Friedrich Trendelenburg. It is often incorrectly referenced as the Trendelenburg test which is a test for vascular insufficiency in the lower extremities.

  9. Gluteal sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluteal_sulcus

    Superior gluteal nerve palsy causes injury to the superior gluteal nerve, which results in motor loss that manifests as a disabling gluteus medius limp. [5] The most common cause is an iatrogenic injury during hip surgery or an intramuscular injection. Lesions of the inferior gluteal nerve occur through iatrogenic injuries like surgery, trauma ...
