Abstract

Proximal hamstring tendon injuries are uncommon injuries, and there are few high-quality studies of surgical procedures in the literature. Increasing standardization of outcome measures with the use of validated, injury-specific, patient-reported outcome measures will improve research in this area. This will allow better assessment of novel surgical techniques.
