  2. Biceps tendon rupture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps_tendon_rupture

    A biceps tendon rupture or bicep tear is a complete or partial rupture of a tendon of the biceps brachii muscle. It can affect any of the three biceps brachii tendons - the proximal tendon of the short head of the muscle belly, the proximal tendon of the long head of the muscle belly, or the distal tendon. The characteristic finding of a biceps ...

  3. Biceps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps

    The Preacher curl, also known as the Scott Curl, is a popular exercise for biceps. The proximal tendons of the biceps brachii are commonly involved in pathological processes and are a frequent cause of anterior shoulder pain. [18] Disorders of the distal biceps brachii tendon include insertional tendonitis and partial or complete tears of the ...

  4. Muscles of the hand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscles_of_the_hand

    The muscles of the hand are the skeletal muscles responsible for the movement of the hand and fingers. The muscles of the hand can be subdivided into two groups: the extrinsic and intrinsic muscle groups. The extrinsic muscle groups are the long flexors and extensors. They are called extrinsic because the muscle belly is located on the forearm ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_tuberosity

    Beneath the neck of the radius, on the medial side, is an eminence, the radial tuberosity; its surface is divided into: . a posterior, rough portion, for the insertion of the tendon of the biceps brachii.

    Biceps brachii; of the forearm at the elbow. Brachialis; Brachioradialis; Biceps brachii; of carpus (the carpal bones) at the wrist. flexor carpi radialis; flexor carpi ulnaris; palmaris longus; of the hand. flexor pollicis longus muscle; flexor pollicis brevis muscle; flexor digitorum profundus muscle; flexor digitorum superficialis muscle

  7. Brachioradialis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachioradialis

    This also assists the biceps brachii. [2] The brachioradialis is a stronger elbow flexor when the forearm is in a midposition between supination and pronation at the radioulnar joint. When pronated, the brachioradialis is more active during elbow flexion since the biceps brachii is in a mechanical disadvantage.

  8. Coracobrachialis muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coracobrachialis_muscle

    Coracobrachialis muscle arises from the (deep surface of the) apex of the coracoid process of the scapula (a common origin with the short head of the biceps brachii [1] [2]). It additionally also arises from the proximal portion of tendon of origin of the biceps brachii muscle. [1]

  9. Flexor carpi radialis muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexor_carpi_radialis_muscle

    The tendon of the flexor carpi radialis is visible on the anterior surface of the forearm, just proximal to the wrist, when the wrist is flexed. It is the tendon seen most lateral, closest to the thumb.
