Fixation of the Proximal Hamstring Tendon Using an All-Suture Tensionable Knotless Technique

Proximal hamstring injuries are a common sports and recreational injury among the active patient population. Surgical fixation of tendons muscle complex, as opposed to conservative treatment alone, has shown improved outcomes, prompting evolution suture anchors utilized in these repairs. Previous studies investigating biomechanical properties repair have focused on double-row knotless techniques, which overall construct relies each individual anchor maintain fixation. While constructs demonstrated strength clinical durability, represents potential point failure for entire due crossed stitch configuration. To address this limitation, recent tensionable all-suture designs been implemented with success their smaller size strength. The aim technical note is, thus, describe technique proximal using that 5 independent mattress sutures and, doing so, employs but eliminates single seen current designs.
