Introduction The Gibson approach, used in hip-preserving surgery, is intermuscular and develops the space anteriorly to the gluteus maximus. Reliable anatomical landmarks for the development of this interval do not exist, but the interval is marked by perforating vessels (PV) of the inferior gluteal artery. The aim of this study was to provide reference values for the relationship between palpable anatomical landmarks on the femur/pelvis and the anterior border of the gluteus maximus using CT scans of the proximal femur. Materials and methods Single center retrospective study of 617 hips who underwent a CT-scan of the pelvis/femur. We defined 5 anatomical markers on the pelvis and proximal femur and measured the distance of the anterior border of the gluteus maximus in relation to the marker, which was either anterior or posterior. The amount PV’s and it’s location relative to the innominate tubercle were measured in the coronal plane. For each landmark we compared these subgroups: male vs female, age < 40 vs ≥ 40, categorical age (< 20; 20–40; 40–60; > 60), and categorical femoral torsion (< 10°; 10°–25°; 25°–35°; > 35°). Results Mean location of the parameters A-E was at − 8.1 cm, 1.1 cm, 1.8 cm, 1.3 cm and 0.4 cm. Parameters B, C, and D were more posterior in the age ≥ 40 group. Parameters A–E were significantly more posterior in the age > 60 group. Parameters A and E were significantly more anterior in females than in males. 50% of the PV are found between 5 and 9 cm proximal to the innominate tubercle. No statistically significant differences were noted in the location of any of the perforating vessels in the different subgroups. Conclusion The Gibson interval is located more anteriorly in female patients and patients under 40 years of age. It is located more posteriorly in patients over 60 years of age. In addition, the interval moves anteriorly with increasing femoral torsion, most notably in patients with very high femoral torsion (> 35°).

The common iliac arteries (CIA) are the main finals branches of the abdominal aorta. The aim of the present meta-analysis was to demonstrate the most up-to-date and evidence-based data regarding the general anatomy of the CIAs, including their length, take-off angles, and diameters. PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar were searched to find all studies considering the anatomy of the CIA. Eligibility assessment and data extraction stages were performed. The results of the measurements in a total of 5785 patients were evaluated and included in the statistical analysis. The prevalence of the origin variations of the CIA has been evaluated. CIA was found to most commonly originate at the level of L4 vertebrae with a pooled prevalence of 59.49% (95% CI 48.00–70.50%). The overall mean length of the CIA was 5.59 mm (SE: 0.13), and the mean diameter of the CIA was 10.52 mm (SE: 0.85). The knowledge of the anatomy and variations of the CIA is crucial in lumbar spine surgery, especially when performing the anterolateral approach to L4 and L5 vertebrae. Furthermore, the level of the aortic bifurcation has significant implications related to vascular surgery in this region. We performed the present meta-analysis to standardize the extensive information on the anatomy of the CIAs.
