Abstract

Biceps tendon injuries can be a significant source of pain, loss of function, and upper arm deformity in either the acute or chronic setting. Evaluation and treatments differ depending on whether the proximal or distal tendon is affected. A thorough history and physical examination is crucial in making the correct diagnosis. MRI is often a useful ancillary test to confirm and delineate the extent of the injury. Treatment options vary depending on the location of the injury as well as patient and surgeon preference.
