Preliminary Result of Arthroscopic Keyhole Biceps Tenodesis A Novel Technique
نویسنده
چکیده
There is increased interest of the orthopedic surgeons in treating the pathology of long head of biceps. Although there is some clarity in the result of biceps tenotomy, it is not so clear concerning tenodesis. An open keyhole tenodesis of biceps is shrouded with concerns of primary stability, use of deltopectoral incision, operative pain, technical difficulty to access biceps tendon in case of intact or small cuff tear, and cosmesis. The purpose of the study is to describe an arthroscopic proximal biceps keyhole tenodesis and evaluate the outcome of the procedure.

Arthroscopic keyhole proximal biceps tenodesis: a technical note.
We describe an arthroscopic keyhole technique for proximal biceps tenodesis. The technique is safe, easy to reproduce, cost-effective, and less time consuming. It does not need any special instrumentation and is suitable especially for use in the developing countries. It enables examination of the biceps sheath and distal biceps tendon for unidentified tears, synovitis, and fibrosis.
متن کاملThe keyhole technique for arthroscopic tenodesis of the long head of the biceps tendon. In vivo prospective study with a radio-opaque marker.
INTRODUCTION In some clinical situations such as when the Long Head of the Biceps (LHB) is unstable or with an "hourglass biceps", treatment is required. Tenodesis is an alternative to tenotomy to prevent the Popeye sign. Although sutures, anchors or interference screws may be used, they all have complications and drawbacks. Moreover, the number of failures is underestimated because it only con...
متن کاملArthroscopic tenodesis of the long head of the biceps.
The long head of the biceps (LHB) is commonly implicated in shoulder pathology due to its anatomic course and intimacy with the rotator cuff and superior labrum of the glenoid. Treatment of tendinosis of the LHB may be required secondary to partial thickness tears, instability/subluxation, associated rotator cuff tears, or SLAP (superior labrum, anterior to posterior) lesions. Treatment options...
متن کاملArthroscopic-assisted biceps tenodesis for ruptures of the long head of biceps brachii: The cobra procedure.
A number of open procedures have been presented in the literature that described the repair of the ruptured long head of biceps brachii (LHBB). Although arthroscopic biceps tenodesis techniques have been used to address partial tears or subluxation of the biceps, no arthroscopic technique to assist in the treatment of complete retracted ruptures of the LHBB has been described. This article desc...
