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.
