Distal Biceps Tendon Repair in Competitive Strength Athletes: A Retrospective Series of 183 Athletes
Distal biceps tendon repair in competitive strength athletes resulted in a high return-to-sport rate and excellent recovery. However, delayed surgery negatively affected outcomes, and 27% of patients experienced persistent subjective strength deficits. Future research is needed to further optimize treatment strategies for athletes.
