Abstract
We report a case of avulsion of the triceps brachii tendon in a patient with secondary hyperparathyroidism due to hemodialysis. A convulsion led to a stress rupture of the tendon, already weakened by degenerative changes. After surgical repair the patient regained nearly normal range of motion and strength.Entities:
