On the basis of three cases the author describes in detail the clinical picture of a rare reflex neurodystrophic syndrome of cervical osteochondrosis which may be attended by spontaneous ruptures of the tendon of the biceps long head. To denote this phenomenon, the term "the biceps syndrome" is proposed. In relation to the status of the tendon of the biceps long head, the location and type of the rupture (complete, incomplete, acute, intermediate, latent) the biceps syndrome may either supplement the clinical picture of humeroscapular periartrosis or present a separate clinical variant of the latter. The possibility of a ruptured tendon of the biceps long head should always be taken into account in the clinical assessment of the symptoms of humeroscapular periartrosis in patients with cervical osteochondrosis.
基于三个病例，作者详细描述了一种罕见的颈椎骨软骨病反射性交感神经营养不良综合征的临床表现，该综合征可能伴有肱二头肌长头肌腱自发性断裂。为表示这一现象，提出了“肱二头肌综合征”这一术语。根据肱二头肌长头肌腱的状态、断裂的部位和类型（完全性、不完全性、急性、中间型、潜伏型），肱二头肌综合征可能补充肩胛肱骨周围炎的临床表现，或者呈现后者的一种单独临床变体。在对颈椎骨软骨病患者肩胛肱骨周围炎症状进行临床评估时，应始终考虑肱二头肌长头肌腱断裂的可能性。
