Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the anatomical factors related to partial distal biceps tendon (DBT) tears, focusing on the size of the radial tuberosity and its potential role in mechanical impingement.
- Researchers reviewed 3-T MRI scans of elbows with partial DBT tears and compared them to elbows without any pathology, looking at various measurements of the radial tuberosity and surrounding spaces.
- The results indicate that elbows with DBT tears tend to have larger radial tuberosity dimensions but smaller radioulnar and radial tuberosity-ulnar spaces, suggesting that certain anatomical traits may contribute to the risk of these types of tendon tears.
