Complete rupture of the triceps brachii muscle.
Avulsion of the triceps tendon is an uncommon injury, but intramuscular rupture of the triceps brachii muscle is extremely rare. Anzel et al reviewed a series of 1014 cases of muscle and tendon injuries and found that only eight of these involved the triceps; four of the eight resulted from open lacerations. An extensive review of the literature showed only six previously reported cases of intr...
متن کاملTriceps brachii distal tendon reattachment with a double-row technique.
Case reports and small series have reported variable results regarding the treatment of choice for patients with triceps brachii tendon ruptures. Early surgical repair has been recommended for acute complete ruptures of the triceps brachii distal tendon to prevent late functional disability. However, controversy exists regarding the optimum surgical technique of reattachment. In addition, vario...

contributions from the medial, lateral, and long heads of the muscle. During the course of performing a triceps tendon repair, we noted a specific deep tendon separate from the more superficial tendon. This observation stimulated us to perform an anatomical study to define the triceps tendon in greater detail. The purpose of this study is to better define the triceps brachii tendon and its inse...
متن کاملDistal biceps brachii tendon rupture resulting in acute compartment syndrome.
Distal biceps brachii tendon rupture is an uncommon injury. Compartment syndrome of the upper arm is rarely described in the literature. The diagnosis of upper arm compartment syndrome requires a high index of suspicion, and emergent surgical treatment with fasciotomy in the acute setting is necessary to avoid devastating neurovascular complications. This article reports a case of acute compart...
متن کاملSonography of partial-thickness tears of the distal triceps brachii tendon.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to retrospectively characterize the sonographic appearance of partial-thickness distal triceps brachii tendon tears. METHODS After Institutional Review Board approval, sonographic records were searched for patients who had an unequivocal partial-thickness triceps tendon tear at surgery or magnetic resonance imaging. Sonograms were retrospectively chara...
