Our results indicate that there is no significant difference in fat distribution and volumes among GTPS and OA patients. This suggests that being overweight or obese may not be directly linked or contribute to the onset of GTPS. Other factors, such as gluteal tendinopathy, bursitis, or iliotibial band syndrome, might be responsible and need further investigation.
