Abstract
Deltoid tendon rupture is an infrequent injury. We report on a young
active white male who sustained a humeral sided deltoid avulsion tendon
rupture while attempting a 450-pound barbell shoulder shrug. Early
surgical fixation and a progressive rehabilitation program provided
successful short and long-term outcomes in our young active patient.03 Dec 2020Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 08 Dec 2020Submission Checks Completed
