Abstract

Proximal gracilis tear is a rare sports-related injury that can easily lead to misdiagnosis and underdiagnosis. Clinical manifestations are dominated by localized pain, tenderness, and dysfunction. Here, we report a therapy of proximal segmental tear of the gracilis and demonstrate its treatment process and clinical outcome. This Technical Note describes in detail the minimally invasive distal gracilis resection technique for the treatment of chronic proximal gracilis ruptures, focusing on the most important technical aspects and thus attempting to introduce this procedure and make it more widely used in the treatment of similar muscle injuries.
