Abstract

The clinical and operative findings of an isolated rupture of the biceps femoris tendon are described. The immediate suture and the initial postoperative treatment with a knee brace limiting extension to 20 degrees and flexion to 70 degrees resulted in a free range of motion and full activity of the biceps femoris.
