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.
Background: High-grade partial proximal hamstring tears and complete tears with retraction less than 2 cm are a subset of proximal hamstring injuries where, historically, treatment has been nonoperative. It is unknown how nonoperative treatment compares with operative treatment.
Hypothesis: The clinical and functional outcomes of nonoperative and operative treatment of partial/complete proximal hamstring tears were compared.
