Abstract
Snapping triceps corresponds to subluxation of the medial head of the triceps brachii over the medial epicondyle during active elbow flexion. It is a rare and misleading condition that is often associated with ulnar nerve instability. The latter can result in the snapping triceps being missed. Diagnosis requires a detailed clinical examination. Surgical treatment consists of anterior translocation of the nerve with an adipose flap to stabilize it and transfer of the distal attachment of the medial head of triceps brachii.
