Abstract
Isolated biceps femoris rupture is a rare injury associated with limitation in the
function of the knee. We present a 65-year-old man who sustained an isolated complete
rupture of the tendon of the biceps femoris. The diagnostic was reached after clinical
examination and magnetic resonance imaging of the affected knee. This case was treated
with a surgical tendon reconstruction. The outcome was good and the patient was able
to walk normally again without limitation, even if he did not comply with our recommendation.
