The purpose of this report is to describe the T-staple tenodesis of biceps brachii in three client-owned dogs and long-term ultrasonographic follow-ups. The orthopaedic examination revealed grade 2/4 (n=2) and 3/4 (n=1) lameness, moderate pain on passive movement and positivity to the tendon biceps ...

A partial rupture of the tendon of the biceps brachial muscle was associated with bicipital tenosynovitis. A four-year old Rottweiler presented with chronic lameness of several weeks duration that did not respond to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory treatment. Clinical examination revealed a moderate ...

This report describes an atypical biceps brachii tendon injury with acute, traumatic fragmentation of the supraglenoid tuberosity and partial rupture of the origin of the biceps brachii tendon in two dogs. Both dogs had foreleg lameness after an acute traumatic event. Radiographic examination...

This paper presents the clinical signs, radiographic and arthroscopic findings in 23 dogs and a cat having a lesion of the biceps tendon. Several conditions were recognized: partial or complete rupture; avulsion of the biceps tendon from the supraglenoid tubercle, tendinitis, mid-substance tear,...

Objective: To report long-term clinical outcome and radiographic results in dogs diagnosed with partial bicipital rupture and treated by arthroscopic tenotomy. Materials and methods: The medical records of dogs that had undergone arthroscopic tenotomy were retrospectively reviewed. Inclusion...

Rupture of the biceps brachii tendon sheath was diagnosed in two dogs which were presented with chronic thoracic limb lameness. In each case, diagnosis was achieved by positive contrast arthrography, which revealed obvious leakage of contrast agent from the distal portion of the tendon sheath....

A case of a complete rupture of the biceps brachii tendon in a lame-free three-year-old Labrador Retriever is described. The dog had a history of chronic lameness following a trauma, but had become lame-free shortly before presentation. Clinical examination, biceps tendon test and shoulder...

The mechanisms underlying cranial cruciate ligament rupture (CCLR) in dogs are poorly understood. In this study hamstring muscle reflexes in response to cranial tibial translation were analysed to determine whether these active stabilisers of the stifle joint are differently activated in dogs with...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate a new extracapsular surgical technique for the treatment of cranial cruciate ligament rupture in small breed dogs. Nine small breed dogs (seven females and two males) weighing ≤15 kg were treated with biceps femoris muscle transposition (BFT). The duration...
