Subpectoral biceps tenodesis using a novel anterior cortical button technique

Abstract: We describe a novel technique, which provides an opportunity to obtain a robust cortical and intramedullary tenodesis, performed under direct vision without the risk of drilling the far cortex and therefore avoiding any potential for neurological injury. There is no cortical implant, which may lead to a diaphyseal stress riser and subsequent fracture risk.

“…This procedure is technically more difficult and requires a longer post-operative rehabilitation period [ 7 9 11 ]. A wide variety of techniques have been described for biceps tenodesis [ 12 13 14 15 ]. These can be categorised by location (intra-articular, extra-articular but within the bicipital grove, and sub-pectoral).…”

“…Although the first tenodesis was described many decades ago, this technique gained popularity only recently, with exponential new techniques in the last decade. 4 , 20 , 24 , 25 , 36 , 38 Surgical fixation of the LHB tendon can be performed either open or arthroscopically, and the LHB tendon can be reinserted either intraarticular or extraarticular. 1 Extraarticular placement is usually done below the bicipital groove, and it is classified according to its relationship to the pectoralis major tendon (PMT): suprapectoral, which lies over the superior border of the PMT; or subpectoral, which lies below the inferior border of the PMT.…”
