    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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps

    The biceps or biceps brachii (Latin: musculus biceps brachii, "two-headed muscle of the arm") is a large muscle that lies on the front of the upper arm between the shoulder and the elbow. Both heads of the muscle arise on the scapula and join to form a single muscle belly which is attached to the upper forearm.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yergason's_Test

    It identifies the presence of a pathology involving the biceps tendon or glenoid labrum. The specific positive findings to the test include pain in the bicipital groove indicating biceps tendinitis, [2] [3] subluxation of the long head of the biceps brachii muscle, [3] and presence of a SLAP tear. [4]

  5. SLAP tear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SLAP_tear

    Most agree that the proximal tendon of the long head of the biceps brachii muscle becomes fibrocartilaginous prior to attaching to the superior aspect of the glenoid. The long head of the triceps brachii inserts inferiorly, similarly. [6] Together, all of those cartilaginous extensions are termed the 'glenoid labrum'. [citation needed]

  6. Medial bicipital groove - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medial_bicipital_groove

    It is formed by the longitudinal hollow between the biceps and triceps muscles. The pulse of the brachial artery can be felt in the medial bicipital groove. [1] It should be distinguished from the bicipital groove or intertubercular sulcus, which is not a surface anatomy structure. It is the groove where the long head of biceps tendon runs ...

  8. Coracobrachialis muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coracobrachialis_muscle

    In more severe cases, the musculocutaneous nerve can get trapped, causing disturbances in sensation to the skin on the radial part of the forearm and weakened flexion of the elbow, as the nerve also supplies the biceps brachii and brachialis muscles. [9] Rupture of the coracobrachialis muscle is extremely rare. Very few case reports exist in ...

  9. Supraglenoid tubercle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supraglenoid_tubercle

    The supraglenoid tubercle is a region of the scapula from which the long head of the biceps brachii muscle originates. [1] [2] It is a small, rough projection superior to the glenoid cavity near the base of the coracoid process. The term supraglenoid is from the Latin supra, meaning above, and glenoid, meaning socket or cavity. [3]
