Abstract:
Four patients with pectoralis major ruptures underwent clinical and dynamometric assessment and one patient underwent late surgical repair. The operation is described. Dynamometry proved a useful and objective method of estimating the loss of strength and indicating patients who might benefit from surgical repair.
