Rupture of the Long Head of the Biceps Tendon in a Pediatric Athlete: A Case Report.

CASE: We report a case of an adolescent athlete who sustained an isolated rupture of the long head of the biceps tendon and was subsequently treated with subpectoral biceps tenodesis. CONCLUSION: Provided that there is no damage to the rotator cuff, an open biceps tenodesis may be performed in this young patient population with good short-term outcomes and return to full activity.
