The hamstring tendon is typically avulsed directly from the lateral aspect of the ischium without bony involvement. &nbsp;

Procedure

In an open or endoscopic manner, the ischial tuberosity of the pelvis is located and debrided. The tendinous origin of the hamstring muscle group is found and reattached back to the ischial tuberosity.

Michael B. Gerhardt, MD (Santa Monica, CA), demonstrates an open repair of the proximal hamstring tendon using a SpeedBridge™ construct to create a low-profile, anatomic repair.

Proximal Hamstring Tendon Repair

James J. Guerra, MD (Naples, FL), demonstrates the repair of a proximal hamstring tear using the Hip SpeedBridge™ implant system with PEEK SwiveLock® anchors. In this cadaveric demonstration, Dr. Guerra outlines the surgical steps for repairing a proximal hamstring tear while identifying key anatomic structures.
