Proximal Hamstring Repair
Cross-referenced under Hip Surgery
Repair of an acute hamstring tear at its pelvic attachment. Surgical repair restores approximately 90% of hamstring strength compared with approximately 50% for non-surgical management. The patient lies prone; a 10–15cm incision is made over the gluteal crease and the retracted tendon is sutured back to the ischial tuberosity with bone anchors. Operative time is 90 minutes to 4 hours depending on retraction.
Recovery begins with crutches and touch weight-bearing for the first two weeks, then a gradual increase in load and gentle physiotherapy. Full return to all activities takes six to twelve months.
