“…Histologisch fand sich bei beiden Patienten kein Hinweis auf etwaige degenerative Verände-rungen. Dies deckt sich mit den bisher publizierten Fällen [2,5,15,21]. Allerdings waren beide Athleten schon 37 Jahre alt, was auch mit den übrigen publizierten Fällen korreliert [2,5,15].…”

Traumatic injuries of the posterolateral structures of the knee are normally the result of a severe rotation trauma, and as a rule, associated with intraarticular lesions. Two cases will be presented, whereby, without injuries to the knee, an isolated rupture of the distal part of the biceps femoris tendon occurred. Intraoperatively as also histologically there was no evidence of degenerative changes. The operative treatment in both cases achieved a good functional result. The better result was achieved with rigid fixation and a limiting protective rehabilitation program as it is used after the operative reconstruction of the torn posterolateral structures.

“…Tears of the distal attachment of the biceps femoris are the most frequently reported distal hamstring tears, with a few radiology case reports of distal semimembranosus avulsions. Semitendinosus tendon tears are also rare and have been reported mainly in the orthopedic literature [5][6][7][8][9][10]. In the radiology literature, distal semitendinosus injuries have not been reported in detail and are overshadowed by the other common hamstring injuries [4,11].…”

Partial semitendinosus tendon tear in a young athlete: a case report and review of the distal semitendinosus anatomy

et al. 2015

Distal semitendinosus tears have been infrequently reported in the radiology literature, and a detailed description of the anatomy and imaging features of these injuries is lacking. The semitendinosus tendon is clinically relevant, as it is frequently grafted in knee ligament reconstructions and plays an important role in performing competitive activities. We present a case of a 31-year-old man who developed a partial semitendinosus tear during competitive training. This case highlights the common clinical and imaging findings found with distal semitendinosus tears, and explores the various modalities available to treat this injury. We also review the clinically pertinent anatomy of the distal semitendinosus tendon and discuss the pitfalls that musculoskeletal radiologists may encounter, to avoid misdiagnosing these rare injuries.
