Repair of a pectoralis major muscle rupture at the tendinous insertion into the humerus was successfully performed 13 years after the initial injury. Repair was possible only because the ruptured sternal portion of the muscle was scarred to the intact clavicular portion and therefore had not retracted. The attachment of the avulsed sternal head to the intact clavicular head enabled successful restoration of strength and function, as well as normal contour and appearance of the pectoralis major muscle complex.
