DOI: 10.1053/j.otsm.2018.02.014
Abstract: The treatment of chronic distal biceps ruptures is challenging. Direct anatomical reinsertion is often difficult as a consequence of tendon retraction, muscle atrophy, and scar tissue. Nonanatomical repair is a controversial option. Repair and reinforcement… read more here.
