For shoulder biceps lesions, arthroscopic tenodesis is preferred over tenotomy. This technique uses bioabsorbable screws for secure fixation without transosseous drilling, offering a reliable surgical option.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Shoulder Arthroscopy

Background:

  • The optimal surgical treatment for biceps lesions remains debated.
  • Tenotomy and tenodesis are common procedures for managing biceps tendon pathology.
  • Existing evidence does not definitively favor one technique over the other.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a preferred technique for arthroscopic biceps tenodesis.
  • To describe a specific surgical method for biceps subluxation or partial tears.
  • To advocate for tenodesis as the treatment of choice pending further evidence.

Main Methods:

  • Arthroscopic tenodesis technique described for biceps lesions.
  • Biceps tendon fixation within a sequentially enlarged bony end-tunnel.

  • Use of bioabsorbable interference screws for fixation.
  • Avoidance of transosseous drilling in the described technique.

    • Main Results:

    • The described technique allows for secure arthroscopic biceps tenodesis.
    • Fixation is achieved without the need for transosseous tunnels.
    • This method is applied to biceps subluxation or partial tears exceeding 50% diameter involvement.

    Conclusions:

    • Arthroscopic biceps tenodesis is presented as a viable and preferred surgical option.
    • The technique utilizes bioabsorbable screws for robust fixation.
    • This approach offers an alternative to tenotomy for specific biceps tendon pathologies.
