Study protocol for a multicenter non-inferiority randomized controlled trial to assess functional outcomes and cost-effectiveness of a primarily non-operative treatment strategy with cast immobilization versus immediate operative treatment followed by cast immobilization for patients with complete ulnar collateral ligament ruptures, including Stener lesions: MUSCAT study

Abstract Background Guidelines recommend operative treatment followed by cast immobilization for acute complete ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) ruptures, including Stener lesions.
