Patients with revision surgery or bony avulsions were excluded. Primary outcomes were complication rates and associated risk factors. Secondary outcomes included the functional outcomes of patients with or without complications, assessed through the Parisian Hamstring Avulsion Score (PHAS), Tegner Activity Scale, and UCLA score (University of California, Los Angeles).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The overall complication rate was 10.4% (79\/757), including a 5.6% rerupture rate and 4.7% non-rerupture complication rate. Most complications (75%) occurred within 5.5 months postsurgery. Significant risk factors for non-rerupture complications included work-related accidents (odds ratio, 5.59; 95% CI, 1.43-37.0;\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .029) and isolated semimembranosus injuries (odds ratio, 12.1; 95% CI, 2.13\u2013227;\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .020). Moderate to severe sitting discomfort was reported in 5% of the cohort but was not associated with postoperative complications.
