6. The tensor fasciæ latæ (p. 187, and Fig. 68, _r_). Cut the fascia
lata along the distal end of the muscle-fibres and reflect the muscle.
7. The gluteus medius (p. 188, and Fig. 90, _b_). Work under it
carefully, separating it from underlying muscles; cut it close to its
tendon of insertion, and reflect it.
8. The pyriformis (p. 188, and Fig. 163, 7, p. 401). Cut and reflect
it.
9. The gemellus superior (p. 189, and Fig. 163, 6). This and the next
muscle will sometimes be found to be completely united. Transect.
