Proximal Hamstring Repair Strength
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background: Proximal hamstring repair for complete ruptures has become a common treatment. There is no consensus in the literature about postoperative rehabilitation protocols following proximal hamstring repair. Some protocols describe bracing to prevent hip flexion or knee extension while others describe no immobilization. There are currently no biomechanical studies evaluating proximal hamstring repairs; nor are there any studies evaluating the effect of different hip flexion angles on these repairs.

Outcome After Surgical Repair of Proximal Hamstring Avulsions: A Systematic Review.
BACKGROUND At the present time, no systematic review, including a quality assessment, has been published about the outcome after proximal hamstring avulsion repair. PURPOSE To determine the outcome after surgical repair of proximal hamstring avulsions, to compare the outcome after acute (≤4 weeks) and delayed repairs (>4 weeks), and to compare the outcome after different surgical techniques. ...
متن کاملSelf-reported and performance-based functional outcomes after surgical repair of proximal hamstring avulsions.
BACKGROUND Because a proximal hamstring avulsion results in residual loss of function, surgical repair is recommended. Few studies have investigated postoperative function with validated outcomes. PURPOSE To examine lower extremity function after surgical repair of proximal hamstring avulsions using validated self-reported and performance-based functional outcomes. STUDY DESIGN Case series;...
متن کاملA Novel Technique to Repair Acute and Chronic Proximal Hamstring Avulsions.
Treatment of proximal hamstring avulsions is challenging regarding both timing and choice of repair. In chronic situations, the tissue can become attenuated, bringing into question the need for adjunctive allograft. In general, proximal hamstring avulsions are affixed back to the ischial tuberosity with suture anchors, with allograft used as needed for chronic situations. This article reports o...
متن کاملSurgical repair of complete proximal hamstring tendon rupture.
BACKGROUND Complete proximal hamstring tendon rupture is a rare injury associated with significant functional loss. Nonoperative treatment has proven inadequate in returning patients to their previous activity level. PURPOSE We wanted to describe the outcome of primary surgical repair of the proximal hamstring tendon avulsion. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS Between 1994 ...
متن کاملA Comparison of Nonoperative and Operative Treatment of Complete Proximal Hamstring Ruptures
Background The early repair of acute proximal hamstring ruptures provides better clinical results than delayed repair. However, it is unclear how nonoperative treatment compares with the operative treatment of these injuries. Purpose To compare the clinical results of the nonoperative and operative treatment of acute proximal hamstring ruptures. Study Design Cohort study; Level of evidence,...
