BICEPS DISLOCATION RADIOLOGY MRI SHOULDER

BICEPS DISLOCATION

• The long head of biceps tendon has dislocated out of the bicipital groove and lies within a tear of subscapularis.

• Wen you see an empty bicipital groove, look medially for the tendon which may be intra or extra articular.

• If you don’t see a tendon at all, then its likely that the biceps tendon has ruptured.

• The long head of biceps tendon ( Pink arrow) has dislocated medially into subscapularis (Yellow arrow).
