A detailed appreciation of biceps tendon anatomy is important to diagnosis and treatment of pathologic processes. The anatomy of the proximal biceps tendon is complex, and the biceps labral complex contains three distinct regions, which are important to clinical pathology. The distal biceps tendon is...
Tendon bursae help minimize friction between the tendon and adjacent bony structures (seeImage. Medial View of the Knee). Bursae are small serous vesicles situated where bony protrusions might compress and cause friction on tendons, potentially leading to wear and tear. Examples are the subacromial,...

There is little information in the literature describing the anatomy of the biceps tendon insertion. The purpose of this study was to map the footprint of the biceps tendon insertion on the bicipital tuberosity and to report on the relevant anatomy to assist surgeons with correct tendon orientatio...
the semitendinosus and fuse with the fibers of the short head of the biceps femoris, which arise from the posterior femur. These fibers continue descending the thigh before forming a long, thin tendon that crosses the posterior knee and inserts on the lateral condyle of the tibia and the head...
The two heads (i.e. distinct collections of muscle fibers) of the biceps anatomy vary in length, and so, they are known as theshortandlongbiceps heads. They connect to different places on the shoulder/scapula region, but have a common insertion point on the elbow tendon. ...
It also provides attachment for the tendon of adductor magnus muscle as well as the tibial collateral ligament (supporting structure connecting the tibia to the femur). The tendons of sartorius and gracilis muscles also pass over (but have no attachments) to the medial condyle of the femur. Of...
Lastly, the posterior thigh muscles are in thebackof your legs. Three smaller muscles are found here in the semitendinosus, the semimembranosus, and the biceps femoris. These help in flexing and rotating your thighs and knees. Signs Something Could Be Wrong With Your Thigh Muscles ...
