AbstractThe rupture of the distal tendon of the biceps brachii is a uncommon injury of the upper extremity. For this reason, the clinical patterns are quite unknown. Between 1980 and 1989 14 patients were treated operatively because of a distal biceps tendon rupture. Aetiology, diagnostic efforts and operative treatment are demonstrated as well as the results of a follow-up of 12 patients. The results of operative treatment are quite good and point out the need for operative treatment.
