Background: Distal biceps tendon injuries typically occur in the dominant arm of men in their
fourth decade of life. Surgical repair restores flexion and supination strength, resulting in …

Background Reinsertion of the acutely ruptured distal biceps is the preferred method of
treatment for most patients and is designed to restore flexion and supination strength. It is …

Background Most of the complications of the Latarjet procedure are related to the bone block
positioning and use of screws. The purpose of this study was to evaluate if an arthroscopic …

Background: This clinical trial was done to evaluate outcomes of the single and double-
incision techniques for acute distal biceps tendon repair. We hypothesized that there would …

Purpose To evaluate mid-term clinical outcomes, complications, bone-block healing, and
positioning using suture-button fixation for an arthroscopic Latarjet procedure. Methods …

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 …

Rupture of the distal biceps tendon accounts for 10% of all biceps brachii ruptures. Injuries
typically occur in the dominant elbow of men aged 40 to 49 years during eccentric …

Distal biceps tendon ruptures can result in functionally significant loss of supination and
flexion strength, as well as decreased resistance to fatigue. Although the diagnosis of distal …

PURPOSE: Distal biceps rupture is a relatively uncommon injury. Surgical repair is
performed in patients who seek increased flexion and supination strength over that which …

Background Surgical fixation is the preferred method of treatment for the ruptured distal
biceps tendon in active patients. To date, no fixation technique has been proven superior in …
