| Abstract | Introduction: Traumatic ruptures of the biceps tendon are rare, but serious, and usually involve the long head of the proximal insertion. Rupture of the distal tendon account for only 3% of all biceps tendon ruptures. A history of tendonitis, overuse, or anabolic steroid abuse may predispose tendons to rupture. Surgical repair, followed by a comprehensive rehabilitation program, was indicated to regain full strength and the range of motion in both flexion and supination. Frequency of the distal tendon rupture occurs between the age of 40 and 60. This kind of disease is more frequent in men than in women. | en |
