Description
Background:Isolated triceps tendon injuries are infrequent, and their combination with a medial ligament avulsion is even rarer. Eccentric force on the triceps tendon following a fall on the outstretched hand, combined with a valgus torque at the elbow joint, exposes the medial side to stretching forces, potentially disrupting the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL).
