Demographic information, time from injury to surgery, mechanism of injury, extent of the tear, pre-existing enthesopathy, perioperative complications, and validated patient-reported outcome scores were included in the analysis. Patients with a minimum of 1-year follow-up were included.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The most common mechanisms of injury were direct elbow trauma (44.9%), extension\/lifting exercises (20.3%), overuse (17.4%), and hyperflexion or hyperextension (17.4%). Eighteen patients were identified with pre-existing symptomatic enthesopathy, and 51 tears were caused by an acute injury. A total of 36 complete and 33 partial tendon tears were identified. Bone tunnels were most commonly used (n = 30; 43.5%), while direct sutures (n = 23; 33.3%) and suture anchors (n = 13; 18.8%) were also used. Perioperative complications occurred in 21.7% of patients, but no patients experienced a rerupture at the time of final follow-up. No statistically significant relationship was found between patient age ( P = .750), degree of the tear ( P = .613), or surgical technique employed ( P = .608) and the presence of perioperative complications.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Despite the heightened risk of perioperative complications after primary repair of distal triceps tendon injuries, the current series found favorable functional outcomes and no cases of reruptures at short-term to midterm follow-up. Furthermore, age, surgical technique, extent of the tear, and mechanism of injury were not associated with adverse patient outcomes in this investigation. Pre-existing triceps enthesopathy was shown to be associated with increased complication rates.<\/jats:p>\n
