risk of postoperative complications as well as increased comfort immediately after surgery. For all treatments options, activity restriction and physical rehabilitation is mandatory. Key Points * The clinical signs are variable but usually include chronic intermittent forelimb lameness that worsens with exercise. * Pain may be elicited on direct biceps tendon palpation while the shoulder is flexed and the elbow extended. * Imaging techniques, including radiographs, diagnostic ultrasound; arthroscopy may be useful to help in the diagnosis and treatment of biceps diseases. * Biceps injuries have been associated to direct or indirect trauma, joint mouse entrapment (OCD flap), tendon strain (partial to complete rupture or avulsion) or impingement. * Treatments are based on the severity of the disease and can incorporate activity restriction, physical rehabilitation, regenerative medicine, or surgery when medical management is unrewarding. * Prognosis is typically good with great return to function.
