Abstract

The distal biceps tendon inserts into the proximal radius at the bicipital tuberosity. Tendon avulsion requires surgical repair for normal function. Severe fractures of the radial head with interosseous membrane disruption may require a prosthetic radial head implant. The literature is sparse as to the anatomy of the proximal radius, tuberosity morphology, or the biceps insertion.
