Biceps and triceps tendon tears affect the tendons responsible for bending and straightening the elbow, as well as supporting strength and stability of the upper extremity. These injuries may occur suddenly from heavy lifting or trauma, or develop over time due to repetitive strain and degeneration. Symptoms often include pain, swelling, bruising, weakness, and difficulty performing everyday tasks that require pushing, pulling, or lifting.

Integrity Orthopedics provides comprehensive evaluation and surgical treatment for biceps and triceps tendon tears, with care tailored to the location, severity, and functional demands of each patient. Diagnosis begins with a detailed physical examination and imaging to confirm the extent of tendon injury and guide treatment planning.

Surgical Tendon Repair


Surgical repair is often recommended for complete tendon tears or injuries that result in significant strength loss or functional limitation. Tendon repair procedures are designed to reattach the torn tendon securely to bone, restoring normal anatomy and improving strength and motion. Surgical techniques are selected based on tendon involvement, timing of injury, and individual patient goals.

Following surgery, a structured rehabilitation program is used to support healing, restore range of motion, and gradually rebuild strength. The goal of treatment is to return patients to daily activities, work, and athletic pursuits safely and reliably.

Integrity Orthopedics delivers evidence-based care for biceps and triceps tendon tears, guiding patients through surgical treatment and recovery with clarity, precision, and a focus on long-term function.
