*Due to:
**Direct transection of myofibres
**Compression of myofibres
**Secondary from haemorrhage (bruising)
***May increase muscle pressure -> [[Muscles Degenerative - Pathology#Ischaemia|ischaemia]] -> [[Muscles Degenerative - Pathology#Necrosis|necrosis]]
**Partial rupture - ''e.g.'' of diaphragm in road traffic accident
**Complete rupture - ''e.g.'' quadriceps of racing greyhounds
**Myorrhexis (tearing) - ''e.g.'' slippery floor causing 'splits' in cattle -> adductor muscle tear
*Healing is by [[Muscle Regeneration|regeneration]]
*Fibrosis (scarring) will compromise function
*During [[Bones Fractures - Pathology|fractures]], fragments may cause further trauma if moved
