Buttock refers to the soft-tissue region on the back of the pelvis, below the waist and above the upper thigh. In everyday use, Buttock describes the rounded area formed mainly by the gluteal muscles and overlying fat. In clinical care, Buttock is a common location for pain descriptions, physical exam findings, and procedural landmarks. It is also an important area for movement, posture, and load transfer between the trunk and legs.
