Abstract
A case of 44 years old male with rupture of the distal insertion of the biceps brachii tendon of the dominant extremity is presented. Two approaches were used; anterior one to find the tendon and posterior one to reattach the tendon to radial tuberosity according to Anderson and Boyd technique. Fourteen months after surgery the patient entirely regained preinjury level of elbow flexion and forearm supination if strength and endurance is concerned.
