DASH scores were similar between groups (4.46 \u00b1 4.4 [CB] vs 5.7 \u00b1 7.5 [BT]; P = .65). Multivariate analysis revealed no differences in range of motion or strength between groups. More CB patients (30%; n = 6) experienced a complication compared with those in the BT group (4.8%; n = 1) ( P = .04), and these complications were predominantly paresthesias of the superficial radial nerve that did not resolve. There were no reoperations or repair failures in either group.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Both the single-incision CB and double-incision BT techniques provided excellent clinical results.
