“…5,6 Thus the transition to arthroscopic biceps tenodesis seems like a logical progression, given the common practice of knotless screw fixation in the shoulder. In 2012 Song and Williams 4 described an arthroscopic technique that uses a knotless screw in the fixation of the biceps tendon.…”

Tenodesis of the long head of the biceps (LHB) is a frequently performed procedure during shoulder arthroscopy for the treatment of degenerative, traumatic, or inflammatory lesions of the LHB tendon. Arthroscopic techniques for LHB tenodesis using knotless screw techniques offer the advantage of circumventing the need for arthroscopic knot tying. In 2012 Song and Williams described a novel tenodesis technique that does not require any knottying procedures by using a knotless anchor. However, a single-anchor configuration may not offer adequate stabilization of the LHB tendon. Therefore we propose a modified method that uses a double knotless anchor that offers advantages over the single knotless anchor, such as an increase in the contact area between the tendon and bone to facilitate tendonto-bone healing and strengthening of the tenodesis construct.

“…The re-tear rates for arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs have presently been reported as high. Studies show a cluster at 20% to 30% re-tear rate; [6][7][8][9][10][11] there is then a cluster at a 50% to 80% re-tear rate, [12][13][14][15][16][17] with all of these being in tears more than 3 cm in size. Open repairs have a re-tear rate of 13% to 31%, with moderate to large tears.…”

Background: Prospective data collection occurred between 2000 and 2010 on 143 consecutive patients with symptomatic rotator cuff tears, aiming to examine the end-result of a new technique of mini-open double row repair: the Capstan screw technique. Methods: All patients had a pre-and postoperative Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score and range of movement measurements. All were followed up for a minimum of 1 year with an exit questionnaire. Subscapularis repairs, small (<1 cm) and massive (>5 cm) supraspinatus repairs were excluded. Ninetynine patients fitted the inclusion and exclusion criteria of whom 87 had a complete data set. Results: The mean (SD) pre-operative OSS was 21.85 (8.6) and the mean (SD) postoperative OSS was 44.58 (5.2) (p < 0.0001). The mean (SD) pre-operative ASES score was 51.5 (19.4) and the mean (SD) postoperative ASES score was 86.42 (17.06) (p < 0.0001). Flexion improved from a mean of 119 to 170 (p < 0.0001). The clinical re-tear rate was 3.4% and the imaged re-tear rate was 6.8%. In total, 91% of patients were satisfied with the procedure. There were no deep infections and two (2%) minor wound infections. There was no single instance of deltoid dysfunction. Conclusions: The Capstan screw technique represents a simple, rapid, strong and reliable mini-open technique.
