The diagnosis of a distal biceps tendon rupture can be established clinically, such as the Hook test, biceps crease interval or supination-pronation test 5. Tears can be confirmed and further evaluated with soft tissue imaging modalities such as ultrasound and MRI 1-5.
12 Αυγ 2024 · What symptoms should I expect with a distal biceps tendon rupture? Symptoms may include pain, weakness, bruising, and a bulge in the upper forearm. Is treatment necessary for a distal biceps tendon rupture? Treatment depends on the severity of the rupture and the patient’s activity level.
Common symptoms of a biceps tendon rupture include pain, ecchymosis and oedema around the antecubital fossa. A popping sound at the moment of rupture is often reported. Avulsion of the distal tendon results in weakness at the elbow, with reported decreases in elbow flexion and supination of up to 40% and 50%, respectively.
12 Απρ 2024 · What causes a distal biceps tendon tear? Distal biceps tendon injuries often result from a forceful, eccentric contraction of the elbow. This means that the biceps muscle is contracting but the elbow is straightening, resulting in lengthening of the muscle-tendon unit.
A sagittal STIR image (left) demonstrates a minimally retracted complete rupture of the distal biceps tendon (arrow) with peritendinous edema and hemorrhage (asterisk). The axial T1-weighted image (right) at the level of the elbow joint shows an intact lacertus fibrosus (arrowheads) arising from the biceps tendon (short arrow,) limiting tendon ...
23 Αυγ 2023 · A tendon on the lower part of the bicep, called the distal bicep tendon, attaches to part of the radius bone in the forearm called the radial tuberosity. This is a small bump on the bone...
5 ημέρες πριν · Distal Biceps Avulsions are injuries to the biceps tendon at the radial tuberosity insertion that generally occurs due to a sudden excessive eccentric contraction of the biceps brachii. Diagnosis can be made clinically in the setting of complete tears with a hook test.
