Snapping triceps tendon, a condition causing elbow extension weakness, can be treated by redirecting the tendon. A novel technique using a two-strand-overhand locking knot showed promising results in a case study.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Snapping triceps tendon is an emerging clinical issue linked to various pathological factors.
  • Causes include genetic variations, post-traumatic alignment issues, and other factors, leading to snapping sensations and elbow extension weakness.
  • Current treatments involve tendon resection or redirection.

Observation:

  • A 19-year-old male presented with post-traumatic dislocation of the distal lateral triceps tendon.
  • Symptoms included a snapping sensation and weakness in left elbow extension.
  • The patient underwent surgical repair using a two-strand-overhand locking knot and double pulley technique.

Findings:

  • The surgical technique successfully redirected the snapping triceps tendon.

  • The patient experienced a full recovery without discomfort post-operation.

    • Implications:

    • This tendon fixing and redirection technique, previously used for rotator cuff tears, offers a viable treatment for snapping triceps tendon.
    • The method shows potential for excellent clinical outcomes in managing this condition.
