The Supreme Court of Finland dismissed the claimant's request for work injury compensation following a tear in the biceps brachii. The claimant argued that a pre-existing, severe pain in the elbow was the direct cause of the injury sustained during work. The court ruled that the pre-existing condition was merely a contributing factor rather than the direct cause of the new injury.
