What is Trendelenburg Sign and cause
Injury to the superior gluteal nerve
Trendelenburg Sign is described as a dipping of the pelvis toward the contralateral side. Because the lesioned abductors cannot maintain the pelvis in a level plane, the patient “falls” toward the good side and simultaneously leans the torso toward the lesioned side to maintain balance.

sensory nerve on posterior thigh
PFCN+SCIATIC
The PFCN originates from the sacral plexus and its nerve roots are the first, second, and third sacral (S) nerve roots. The S2 nerve root is the main one.
The posterior femoral cutaneous nerve (PFCN) is the sensory nerve that provides sensation to the skin of the back of the thigh. It’s also known as the posterior cutaneous nerve of the thigh or the lesser sciatic nerve.
The PFCN’s sensory innervation includes:
The back of the thigh, including the popliteal fossa
The lower half of the buttock
The posterior part of the scrotum or labium majus
A variable area of the posterior calf
Nerve for knee extension

Injured superior gluteal nerve
Damage to superior Gluteal nerve will result in the patient developing as Trendelenburg gait. Affected patients are unable to abduct the thigh at hip joint. During the stance phase, the weakened abductor muscles allowe the pelvis to tilt down on the opposite side. To compensate, the truck lurches to the weakened side to attempt to maintain a leveled pelvis throughout the gait cycle. The pelvis sags on the opposite side of the lesioned superior gluteal nerve.
