Isolated rupture of biceps femoris tendon
MUSCULOSKELETAL SURGERY, 2011Authors present a case of rupture of the distal end of the biceps femoris. Injuries at this site are relatively rare. Clinical assessment can be aided by instrumental examinations such as ultrasound and especially NMR. Delayed treatment because of erroneous diagnosis or failure of conservative therapy can result in proximal retraction and atrophy of ...

Primary hydatid cyst of the biceps femoris
MUSCULOSKELETAL SURGERY, 2010Echinococciasis is a zoonotic infestation, which generally involves the liver and the lungs. Primary muscle hydatidosis is an uncommon finding. The authors report a case of primary hydatid cyst localized in the right long head of the biceps femoris of a 25-year-old woman. A wide excision of the cyst with a safety margin was performed. No recurrence has

The Long Head of the Biceps Femoris
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1993Electrical stimulation of the nerve to the gracilis muscle following its transposition around the anal canal creates an artificial sphincter capable of actively opposing intrarectal pressure. Not all patients have an available or suitable gracilis. This paper describes the anatomic basis for the use of the long head of the biceps femoris as a potential

Extended Application of the Biceps Femoris Musculocutaneous Flap
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1988Since its description in 1977, the use of the biceps femoris musculocutaneous flap has been largely limited to reconstructions around the hip and perineum in paraplegic patients. The safety with which this flap can be transposed has been questioned owing to the segmental nature of its blood supply.

Isolated Avulsion of the Biceps Femoris Insertion
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1990The clinical, roentgenographic, and operative findings of an isolated biceps femoris avulsion in a 21-year-old man demonstrated the significance of the static stabilizers about the knee, menisci, and articular cartilage. Examination of the dynamic structures about the knee, however, may present a diagnostic problem.

The Biceps Femoris Tendon and Its Functional Significance
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1972Thirty-one knees were dissected to determine the detailed anatomy of the biceps tendon. Findings regarding the expansions of the superficial, middle, and deep layers of the tendon, and the insertions, differed from previous descriptions. The possible functional contributions of the biceps tendon to lateral knee stability were determined.

Descriptive anatomy of the insertion of the biceps femoris muscle
Clinical Anatomy, 2006The biceps femoris is the most lateral component of the so-called hamstring muscles. Classically, this muscle's insertion into the head of the fibula has been described but further details of its anatomy have not been universally appreciated. Additional insertions into the crural fascia and tibia have been described.

Isolated complete rupture of biceps femoris tendon
Injury, 1995Traumatic complete rupture of the biceps femoris muscle tendon (MBFT) is a rare entity of which only two separate cases have been describedI,‘. Two more patients with different injury mechanisms are reported. One patient had a surgical repair of her tendon while the other was treated non-operatively.

Distal rupture of the biceps femoris muscle
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 1994Total rupture of the femoral biceps muscle is a rare diagnosis, probably because it is disregarded. Few cases have been reported in the literature, and in all cases surgery has been performed. The 2 patients described both had a complete rupture of the femoral biceps tendon a few centimetres proximally to its insertion at caput fibulae.

Biceps Femoris Aponeurosis Size
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2015A disproportionately small biceps femoris long head (BFlh) proximal aponeurosis has been suggested as a risk factor for hamstring strain injury by concentrating mechanical strain on the surrounding muscle tissue. However, the size of the BFlh aponeurosis relative to BFlh muscle size, or overall knee flexor strength, has not been investigated.
