  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. Yergason's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yergason's_Test

    Biceps tendinitis or subluxation of the biceps tendon can normally be addressed by palpating the long head of the biceps tendon in the bicipital groove. [2] The patient will exhibit a pain response, snapping or both in the bicipital groove. Pain with no associated popping might indicate bicipital tendinopathy.

  4. Biceps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps

    The biceps muscle has two heads, the short head and the long head, distinguished according to their origin at the coracoid process and supraglenoid tubercle of the scapula, respectively. [1] From its origin on the glenoid, the long head remains tendinous as it passes through the shoulder joint and through the intertubercular groove of the ...

  5. Biceps femoris muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps_femoris_muscle

    The biceps femoris (/ ˈ b aɪ s ɛ p s ˈ f ɛ m ər ɪ s /) is a muscle of the thigh located to the posterior, or back. As its name implies, it consists of two heads; the long head is considered part of the hamstring muscle group, while the short head is sometimes excluded from this characterization, as it only causes knee flexion (but not hip extension) [1] and is activated by a separate ...

  6. 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]

  7. 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. SLAP tear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SLAP_tear

    A SLAP tear or SLAP lesion is an injury to the superior glenoid labrum (fibrocartilaginous rim attached around the margin of the glenoid cavity in the shoulder blade) that initiates in the back of the labrum and stretches toward the front into the attachment point of the long head of the biceps tendon.

  9. Thompson groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thompson_groups

    The Thompson group F is generated by operations like this on binary trees. Here L and T are nodes, but A B and R can be replaced by more general trees.. The group F also has realizations in terms of operations on ordered rooted binary trees, and as a subgroup of the piecewise linear homeomorphisms of the unit interval that preserve orientation and whose non-differentiable points are dyadic ...
