Distal triceps ruptures
نویسندگان
چکیده
Distal triceps ruptures are rare injuries due to the special anatomical features of the muscle and tendon-bone junction.This injury typically occurs at the tendon-bone junction due to an eccentric contraction of the muscle.The treatment is controversial, especially in partial ruptures; surgical repair is indicated for complete ruptures of the distal triceps tendon.Several repair techniques have been described for acute complete ruptures.Chronic ruptures often require reconstruction rather than direct repair.

Triceps brachii distal tendon reattachment with a double-row technique.
Case reports and small series have reported variable results regarding the treatment of choice for patients with triceps brachii tendon ruptures. Early surgical repair has been recommended for acute complete ruptures of the triceps brachii distal tendon to prevent late functional disability. However, controversy exists regarding the optimum surgical technique of reattachment. In addition, vario...
متن کاملThe distal triceps tendon footprint and a biomechanical analysis of 3 repair techniques.
BACKGROUND Anatomic repair of tendon ruptures is an important goal of surgical treatment. There are limited data on the triceps brachii insertion, footprint, and anatomic reconstruction of the distal triceps tendon. HYPOTHESIS An anatomic repair of distal triceps tendon ruptures more closely imitates the preinjury anatomy and may result in a more durable repair. STUDY DESIGN Descriptive and...
متن کاملTraumatic Rupture of the Distal Triceps Tendon (A Series of 7 Cases)
Even non-traumatic ruptures of the triceps tendon are rare, surgical therapy should be recommended in all cases, because of poor results after non-operative treatment. A golden standard for the surgical procedure is not established. A small series of traumatic distal tendon ruptures was treated surgical in our hospital and was followed up after 12 months concerning their function. Very good and...
متن کاملReconstruction of the distal biceps tendon using triceps graft: a technical note☆
Rupture of the distal biceps brachii tendon typically occur in a contraction against resistance with the elbow in 90° of flexion. Chronic ruptures are uncommon and are complicated by tendon and muscle retraction and poor quality. Some reconstruction techniques have been described in the literature, with variations on the surgical exposures, type of graft (allo or autograft), graft donor site, a...
متن کاملTreatment of a Complex Distal Triceps Tendon Rupture With a New Technique: A Case Report.
INTRODUCTION The distal triceps tendon rupture is an uncommon injury. The acute treatment is well-defined, but when a delayed diagnosis is made or when a tendon retraction is present the alternatives or reconstruction are limited and sometimes complex. CASE PRESENTATION In this case, we report on a 28-year-old man who presented with a chronic disruption of the distal triceps tendon with a gap...
