RESUMEN Objetivo: describir el diagnóstico y tratamiento de la entesopatía del tendón distal del bíceps crural en un corredor profesional. Método: el diagnóstico se obtuvo mediante datos clínicos y exploraciones complementarias. Describimos la técnica quirúrgica, el manejo post-operatorio y el sistema de valoración empleado en el seguimiento. Resultados: el diagnóstico se confirmó histológicamente. La recuperación funcional fue completa. Conclusión: solo hemos encontrado otro caso publicado de entesopatía del tendón distal del bíceps crural, sin referencia a afectación del nervio ciático poplíteo externo. Si el tratamiento conservador no resuelve la sintomatología, puede estar indicada la cirugía. ABSTRACT Objective: to describe the diagnostic and treatment strategies for distal biceps femoris tendon enthesopathy, in a professional runner. Method: The diagnosis was based on clinical and complementary studies. The surgical technique, postoperative management and assessment, are described. Results: Histological study confirmed the diagnosis and the clinical outcome was satisfactory, with complete recovery after surgical management. Conclusion: there is only one published study assessing distal biceps femoris tendon enthesopathy. The possible involvement of the peroneal nerve has not been previously considered. If conservative treatment only provides temporary relief of symptoms, then surgery can be indicated. RESUMO Objetivo: descrever o diagnóstico e tratamento da entesopatia do tendão crural do bíceps distal em um corredor profissional. Método: o diagnóstico foi obtido por meio de dados clínicos e explorações complementares. Descrevemos a técnica cirúrgica, o manejo pós-operatório e o sistema de avaliação utilizado no acompanhamento. Resultados: o diagnóstico foi confirmado histologicamente. A recuperação funcional foi completa. Conclusão: encontramos apenas outro caso publicado de entesopatia do tendão distal do bíceps crural, sem referência ao envolvimento do nervo ciático poplíteo externo. Se o tratamento conservador não resolver os sintomas, a cirurgia pode ser indicada.

Biceps Femoris Tendon

We describe entrapment of the common peroneal nerve by a suture after surgical repair of the distal biceps femoris tendon. Complete rupture of the distal biceps femoris tendon of a 16-year-old male athlete was surgically repaired. Postoperative common peroneal nerve palsy was evident, but conservative treatment did not cause any neurological improvement. Reexploration revealed that the common peroneal nerve was entrapped by the surgical suture. Complete removal of the suture and external neurolysis significantly improved the palsy. The common peroneal nerve is prone to damage as a result of its close proximity to the biceps femoris tendon and it should be identified during surgical repair of a ruptured distal biceps femoris tendon.

AbstractThe Biceps femoris is a vital component of the posterolateral corner of the knee. We report two cases of isolated rupture of the biceps femoris, discuss the possible mechanism of injury, and review the literature.

Optimal Visualization

Chapter 124 discusses US scanning of the knee, which is commonly performed for assessment of superficial knee structures, such as the extensor mechanism tendons and collateral ligaments, as well as identification of Baker cysts or prepatellar bursae. Dynamic US evaluation, such as flexion/extension of the knee or varus/valgus stress maneuvers, may improve diagnostic performance and further characterize severity of tendon or ligamentous injury and ligament incompetence. US examination may be comprehensive or focused, with constant modification of patient and probe positioning to allow for optimal visualization of the knee structures. Common US artifacts, such as anisotropy of the extensor tendons or heterogeneous appearance of the distal joined attachment of the lateral collateral ligament proper and the distal biceps femoris tendon, should not be mistaken for pathology. Although parameniscal cysts can be readily identified by US, there is ongoing controversy regarding the role of US in evaluation of meniscal tears.

Biceps Femoris Tendon

Chronic menstrual dysfunction and low female sex hormones adversely affect muscular performance in women but studies in college athletes are scarce. A cohort of 18 Japanese, female college athletes at the University of Tsukuba, Japan, were recruited and studied over 3 weeks under 2 conditions. One group had normal menstrual cycling (CYC, 9 athletes) while the other had irregular cycles (DYS, 9 athletes). Hormones and creatine kinase (CK) were measured from blood under both rest (RE) and exercise (EX) conditions. Biceps femoris tendon stiffness was measured by myometry. No differences in age, height, weight, menarche age, or one-repetition maximum weight existed between the groups. The DYS group had persistently low levels of estrogen and progesterone. In the CYC group, the CK level significantly increased at each point immediately post-exercise and 24 h post-exercise compared to pre-exercise in Weeks 1 and 2, and significantly increased at 24 h post-exercise compared to pre-exercise status in Week 3. The DYS group was significantly different only between pre-exercise and 24 h post-exercise over all 3 weeks. The DYS group also suffered from higher biceps femoris tendon stiffness at 24 h post-exercise. Chronic menstrual irregularities in Japanese college athletes increase muscle damage markers in the bloodstream and muscle stiffness after acute strength training.
