Direct and indirect trauma can cause injury to various portions of the pectoralis major muscle in varying degrees. Sprains and partial tears of the pectoralis major muscle are not uncommon. Surgical repair in acute injuries can often produce excellent results in selected patients. Complete injuries of the muscle tendon itself (Type IIID) are best treated with surgical repair in otherwise healthy patients. Delayed diagnosis and delayed repair may prevent excellent results. A functional classification as presented here can aid in the diagnosis and treatment of these injuries.
直接和间接创伤可不同程度地导致胸大肌各部位损伤。胸大肌扭伤和部分撕裂并不罕见。对于急性损伤，在特定患者中进行手术修复往往能取得良好效果。对于肌腱本身的完全损伤（IIID型），在其他方面健康的患者中，最佳治疗方法是手术修复。诊断延迟和修复延迟可能无法取得良好效果。此处提出的功能分类有助于这些损伤的诊断和治疗。
