Description
Jay Ebert and co-authors follow 104 patients for two years after hip abductor tendon repair, reporting in 2026. These tendons steady the pelvis, and tears that resist conservative care can be fixed surgically. Scores for hip function and general health were gathered before surgery and again at two years.
Hip scores improved by large margins, thirty-six points on one scale and about eighteen on another. Seven patients, under seven percent, tore the repair again with symptoms. About eighty percent of those followed called themselves very satisfied. One pre-surgery health score, the physical part of the SF-12 survey, alone predicted outcome and satisfaction, though weakly.
