26. OVERTIME: Distal Biceps Ruptures

On today’s episode, we’re going to chat about the treatment of distal biceps tendon ruptures. We’ve seen this injury across many sports and in some prominent players – for example, Miguel Cabrera, all-star first baseman, sustained a biceps tendon rupture while at bat, when he swung and missed an off-speed pitch. We also see this injury in cross fit athletes, body builders and overhead laborers. This can be a devastating injury for our athletes, so understanding the treatment technique options, post-op rehab and what return to sports and return to work looks like is very important.

13. Introducing OVERTIME: Lateral Extra-articular Tenodesis (LET)
