Yes, An Old Pec Major Tear Can be Repaired. Here’s an early result  

Doc, many are still asking why the injured pectoralis has been reattached after surgery, and returned to lifting and the muscles have grown, but the appearance of the muscle still seems incomplete, or its the surgeon didnt do the same technique that you are doing like the achilles allograft

Hi doctor, my injury happened 13 years ago, I need this surgery, I lost 90% of my strength on the right side.

Do you do surgeries in femur and tibia?

What is the price for this surgery?

Hi Dr Mora, curious to know how much would the out of pocket cost be for a surgery like this for a patient with a BCBS PPO plan?

Amazing results! I'm so happy to find your Channel certainly the best source for pectoralis tear injuries on RU-vid! I am in a predicament with my pec tear injury, if you can provide any input or comments/ advice I would greatly appreciate it: SUMMARY of my dilemma: 1) should I get pec tear tendon repair surgery now ( by 11/31) with my great local Melbourne FL ortho surgeon or 2) Wait to see a Dr Matthew Steibel in Palm Beach FL, by 12/12, He specializes in chronic pec tears + more experience, then I may have to wait for surgery until Jan or ? My injury occurred on 10/8/23., got an MRI 11/9, visited my local ortho on 11/15. DETAILS of my dillema: I'm a professional bodyboarder from FL/OBX, and I got a Pectoralis Major injury while surfing during Hurricane Philippe, in Outer Banks of North Carolina. The mechanics of the trauma was almost identical to a bench press + more violent. Shockwave of the lip of wave exploded under my board causing my arm to snap back violently, I heard my tendon snap underwater. My youtube channel shows the wave that caused my injury. My local ortho surgeon, he said that I'm a candidate for surgery, there's a 40% chance that the surgery might not be successful because my PEC tear has already started healing. Meanwhile I found an orthopedic surgeon Dr Matthew Steibel in Palm Beach FL, specializes in chronic PEC tears. Dr. Stiebel learned a unique pec repair technique from Dr. Anthony Schepsis, @ Boston University, surgeon credited with developing repair techniques. I made an appointment unfortunately I can't get in to see him until December 12th . Also I found your channel! I'm in a real dilemma of should I wait and try to get into the surgeon who has more experience or should I get the surgery as soon as possible with a surgeon who has slightly less experience considering this is a time-sensitive injury and I'm at the borderline between an acute and a chronic injury(?) On top of that the holidays have made scheduling extremely difficult. My goals are to retain strength and above ALL to get back in the water. For me shape is not as important. My case is a prime example of why when you get injured you should go to the doctor immediately and do not delay. At this point I will go to the ends of the Earth and do anything to improve the outcome of my injury. I am open to travelling anywhere to improve my outcome probability. Perhaps I can schedule a televisit with you if you could review my MRI and provide some detailed insight? Any comments or input you can provide I would greatly appreciate it, I am sorry this is so long, Thank you so much for putting these videos out, they give hope to those of us with this injury.

Hey Dr, just wondering would you recommend surgery on a partial pec tear of the major tendon from humerus? Approximately 2.5cm avulsion or would non op be a better treatment?

Hi Dr Mora, i have a 7cm partial Myotendinous tear of my pec Major, around 3 years old. Can this be repaired in the same way ?

My ortho told me that he can’t fix my pec tear because I tore it in a part that’s not fixable. “Full thickness myotendinous rupture of the left pect major with regional interstitial fluid/ hermatoma and muscle edema. Should I seek a 2nd opinion. He compared it to sowing two pieces of meat together

Hey doc. I had a pec injury over a year for my right pec. I was doing pull ups and I strained my pec and it hurt. I could barely lift my arm. I went to the doctor and had an MRI. They said I didn’t tear it and that physically therapy was optional. I like three months of physical therapy and stayed in the gym. I was doing like 10 pound dumbbells at first. Now it’s been over a year and I’m barely benching 30-35Ib dumbbells. I can lift my arm but I still that soreness and weakness. When I bench I feel tension on the pec. Did I tear my muscle or not? The pec behaves the same as the other but is much smaller and weaker.

Tried to reach you several times without success. tried email and telephone from your clinic. please help

Hey doc. I had my pec tendon surgery repair last march. However I still have a defect, and a cord like structure in my armpit that goes to my elbow. Please help, I need relief and answers as my ortho isn't giving them. Thank you.
