Predictors of Clinical Outcomes and Quality of Life After Sternoclavicular Joint Reconstruction With Hamstring Tendon Autograft
The significant improvements in clinical and sport-specific outcomes and high patient satisfaction after SCJ reconstruction with a hamstring tendon autograft demonstrate the success of this procedure in treating anterior SCJ instability. Male sex and younger patient age are associated with superior outcomes, while overhead athletes have to be counseled about difficulties of returning to preinjury level of sport postoperatively.
