Proximal hamstring tears are among the most common injuries afflicting athletes and middle-aged individuals. Sciatic nerve compression after a proximal hamstring injury, which can occur due to scar formation and subsequent irritation or compression o...
The reconstruction of a chronic proximal hamstring tear is a challenging pathology that posits difficulties to surgeons due to the distal retraction of the hamstring tendon stumps and the entrapment of the sciatic nerve within the scar formed around...
Background and Clinical Significance: Proximal hamstring tendinopathy can occur not only in athletes but also in nonathletes when daily activities impose repetitive tensile or compressive loading at the ischial tuberosity. Because symptoms often rese...
Objective: With the remarkable advances in diagnostic ultrasound equipment, there is a growing need for ultrasound diagnosis of muscle and soft tissue injuries in sports injuries. Among these, hamstring strains are often difficult to treat and requir...
Pain arising from the ischial region is commonly attributed to proximal hamstring injury or ischial bursitis, whereas injury to the ischiocondylar portion of the adductor magnus remains less commonly considered because of its deep location and comple...
