Tendon injuries
Tendons are anatomical structures connecting muscles to bones which generate transmission of forces, thereby ensuring joint movements.1 Due to overuse or age-related degeneration, tendon injuries have become a common clinical problem. Damaged tendons heal slowly and rarely retain the structural integrity and mechanical strength of a healthy tendon, which often results in clinical challenges as ...

Injuries to the biceps and triceps tendons about the elbow are relatively infrequent. Typically, they are traumatic events that occur as a result of a forceful eccentric contraction.

متن کاملDistal biceps tendon injuries
Distal biceps tendon (DBT) conditions are relatively common in middle-aged males. The number of reported DBT tears seems to have increased over the last few years, likely related to better understanding and improved diagnostic methods.1 While some individuals may maintain reasonable function after non-operative treatment of a ruptured DBT, biomechanical and clinical studies suggest that most in...
متن کاملDistal biceps tendon injuries.
Distal biceps tendon ruptures present with an initial tearing sensation accompanied by acute pain; weakness may follow. The hook test is very reliable for diagnosing ruptures, and magnetic resonance imaging can provide information about the integrity and any intrasubstance degeneration of the tendon. There are subtle differences between the outcomes of single and modified two-incision operative...
