AbstractThe authors describe the case-history of a rare covered injury of the musculus pectoralis major, abruption of the attachment of its tendon on the humerus. In the world literature only three major groups were described, the majority of publications pertain only to individual observations. In the development of the injury always a very similar mechanism is involved, a considerable proportion are sports injuries. The injury is adequately defined from the diagnostic aspect, it may cause embarrassment because it is uncommon. As the loss of function is marked, surgical repair is considered the method of choice. The importance of early operation is emphasized. The described technique of reinsertion produced results satisfactory from the patient's point of view.
