  2. Yergason's test - Wikipedia

    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.

  3. Biceps tendon rupture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps_tendon_rupture

    The biceps brachii primarily serves to supinate the forearm at the elbow joint. [1] The muscle belly is composed of two heads. The short head is more medial and highlighted in green. The long head is more lateral and highlighted in red. A biceps tendon rupture or bicep tear is a complete or partial rupture of a tendon of the biceps brachii muscle.

  4. Bicipital aponeurosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicipital_aponeurosis

    The bicipital aponeurosis originates from the distal insertion of the biceps brachii, and inserts into the deep fascia of the forearm. [1] The biceps tendon inserts on the radial tuberosity, and the bicipital aponeurosis lies medially to it. [2] It reinforces the cubital fossa, helping to protect the brachial artery and the median nerve running ...

  5. Biceps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps

    The biceps is a particularly powerful supinator of the forearm due to the distal attachment of the muscle at the radial tuberosity, on the opposite side of the bone from the supinator muscle. When flexed, the biceps effectively pulls the radius back into its neutral supinated position in concert with the supinator muscle.

  6. 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.

  7. Coracobrachialis muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coracobrachialis_muscle

    Symptoms of overuse or injury are pain in the arm and shoulder, radiating down to the back of the hand. 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 ...

  8. Glenoid labrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenoid_labrum

    A SLAP lesion (superior labrum, anterior to posterior) is a tear where the glenoid labrum meets the tendon of the long head of the biceps muscle. Symptoms include increased pain with overhead activity, popping or grinding, loss of strength, and trouble localizing a specific point of pain. [ 3 ]

  9. Neer impingement test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neer_Impingement_Test

    The Neer impingement test is a test designed to reproduce symptoms of rotator cuff impingement through flexing the shoulder and pressure application. Symptoms should be reproduced if there is a problem with the supraspinatus or biceps brachii. [1] This test is also associated with the Hawkins-Kennedy Test and Jobe's Test. [2]
