A complete brachioradialis tendon rupture, as an isolated incident, is extremely rare. Consequently, there is little to no literature on how this can occur and how to treat it. We present the case of a 44-year-old male with a complete, closed brachioradialis tendon rupture following a waterskiing accident. The clinical, imagining and operative findings are outlined alongside management and final outcomes. Our case highlights the effectiveness of a combined surgical and staged physiotherapy approach, for the management of a complete, closed brachioradialis tendon rupture, in an otherwise healthy man.
