چکیده
Distal biceps tendon rupture accounts for only 3% 10% of all biceps tendon injuries. The majority of distal biceps tendon injuries are from complete rupture. It is especially rare to diagnose partial rupture of the distal biceps tendon. Our case profiles a chronic partial tear of the distal biceps tendon in a pediatric patient.

Delayed Surgical Treatment of Distal Biceps Tendon Rupture – A Case Report
ABSTRACT Traumatic rupture of the distal biceps tendon is rare. Conservative treatment can result in reduced flexion and supination power with reduced function. This case report emphasizes the need for prompt surgical treatment and describes the possible complications of delayed surgical intervention.
متن کاملGouty Tenosynovitis of the Distal Biceps Tendon Insertion Complicated by Partial Rupture: First Case and Review of the Literature.
Background: Given the appreciable prevalence of gout, gout-induced tendon ruptures in the upper extremity are extremely rare. Although these events have been reported only 5 times in the literature, all in patients with a risk factor for or history of gout, they have conspicuously never been diagnosed in the shoulder or elbow. Methods: A 45-year-old, right-hand-dominant man with a history of go...
متن کاملModified Tension – Slide Technique for Anatomical Distal Biceps Tenodesis using a Bicortical EndoButton and a Tenodesis Screw
INTRODUCTION Many surgical techniques have been described in the literature. In this article, we describe surgical technical details along with tips and tricks of distal biceps tendon tenodesis using the EndoButton and tension - slide technique, a modification of the suspensory cortical button technique, which allows the surgeon to tension and repairs the biceps tendon through the single longit...
متن کاملRupture of the Distal Biceps Tendon Combined with a Supinator Muscle Tear in a 51-Year-Old Woman: A Case Report
Distal biceps tendon rupture is a relatively uncommon occurrence in the general female population, and to our knowledge, has not been reported in association with a supinator muscle tear. We report a case of 51-year-old woman who experienced sharp pain in her forearm and elbow after lifting a heavy object. History and physical examination raised suspicion for a distal biceps tendon rupture. MRI...
متن کاملBrachial Artery Injury during Surgical Repair of Distal Biceps Rupture: A Report of Two Cases
Distal biceps tendon ruptures are a result of an eccentric load onto a flexed elbow and can lead to loss of flexion and supination strength. Surgical treatment is a well-accepted treatment that can improve flexion and supination strength, however, can be associated with a number of surgical complications. The case presented here describes a vascular injury sustained during a distal biceps tendo...
