Arthroscopic In Situ Biceps Tenodesis Using a Double Loop-and-Tack Knotless Suture Anchor

ABSTRACT: The long head biceps tendon is a common culprit of anterior shoulder pain and dysfunction that can be surgically treated with tenotomy or tenodesis. Many techniques exist for tenodesis. This article submits an arthroscopic technique using two loop-and-tack sutures and a knotless suture anchor to tenodese the long head biceps tendon in the proximal bicipital groove in situ. The advantage of this technique is that it maintains the biceps in its native position by performing tenodesis before tenotomy. Most other techniques attempt to restore native position of the biceps through approximation. The transverse humeral ligament is also released to decompress the bicipital groove. This technique can be used to treat isolated biceps pathology or combined with rotator cuff and labral procedures. Technique Video Video 1 Arthroscopic in situ biceps tenodesis using a double loop-and-tack knotless suture anchor. This video uses a case example of a left shoulder in lateral decubitus position viewed from the posterior portal. The following steps are included: 1) positioning and arthroscopic evaluation, 2) localization of the long head biceps tendon, 3) implementation of loop-and-tack sutures, and 5) in situ biceps tenodesis followed by tenotomy.

Arthroscopic Suprapectoral Biceps Tenodesis: The "Double Secure Loop Technique" Using an All-Suture Anchor and an Arthroscopic Suture Passer.

Project description:Although the long head of the biceps tendon is known to resist superior movement of the humeral head in the shoulder joint and assist flexion and supination of the elbow joint, its exact function remains unclear. Moreover, the ideal treatment of lesions of the long head of the biceps tendon such as tendinitis, subluxation, dislocation, and partial or complete rupture remains controversial. Various tenodesis methods have been introduced by many authors. This technique-based article aims to discuss tenodesis as an option for biceps tendon fixation.

All-arthroscopic biceps tenodesis by knotless winding suture.

Project description:Biceps tenodesis techniques can use a large-caliber interference screw, a suture anchor, or a knotless anchor. This report describes a tenodesis technique that is easy to perform and does not require any knotting. Before penetration of the tendon with the tip, a No. 2 nonabsorbable braided suture is passed through the lumen of the hook-like instrument. The use of only 1 hooking maneuver through the tendon can allow the winding of the whole tendon. The eyelet of a knotless anchor (Bio-PushLock; Arthrex, Naples, FL) with 2 ends of the suture is inserted into the bone hole at the bicipital groove.

Arthroscopic suture anchor tenodesis: loop-suture technique.

Project description:With advancements in arthroscopic surgery, arthroscopic biceps tenodesis with suture anchor recently has been reported to be a reasonable option for the treatment of biceps pathologies, especially for those that are symptomatic or accompanied by a rotator cuff tear. We introduce our technique of arthroscopic biceps tenodesis with suture anchor that we call the loop-suture technique, which is constructed with 1 loop strand and another sutured strand. This technique can help to improve biceps grip and simultaneously minimize longitudinal splitting of the tendon. In addition, it is relatively simple and can be performed with the use of conventional devices and arthroscopic portals used for rotator cuff repair, without the formation of additional portals or a separate incision for the tenodesis.

Arthroscopic Tenodesis of the Long Head Biceps Tendon Using a Double Lasso-Loop Suture Anchor Configuration.

Project description:Multiple different techniques exist for performing a biceps tenodesis, and the literature has yet to define a particular technique as superior with respect to outcomes. Factors as the center of various clinical and biomechanical studies include analyzing arthroscopic versus open techniques, optimal fixation sites, and the use specific fixation devices (i.e., anchor, screw). This article details an all-arthroscopic approach for proximal tenodesis of the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) using a 2-portal method in a minimally invasive manner. Optimal biomechanical fixation of the LHBT is achieve by using 2 suture anchors in the creation of a dual lasso-loop configuration at the level of the bicipital groove. Technical pearls with respect to optimal arthroscopic viewing, efficient identification of the LHBT and subsequent release from the bicipital groove, and appropriate use of suture anchors for lasso-loop creation are presented for review. Two specific technical advantages of this technique include 2 fixation points for the LHBT to minimize failure risk, and smaller drill holes when compared with commonly performed tenodesis screw techniques to theoretically limit humeral fracture risk.

Arthroscopic Transtendinous Biceps Tenodesis With All-Suture Anchor.

Project description:There are several methods for long head of the biceps (LHB) tenodesis, yet the optimal option is still debatable. Here we introduce a technique for arthroscopic suprapectoral biceps tenodesis with an all-suture anchor, the transtendinous biceps tenodesis technique. The LHB tenodesis is performed by using the Y-Knot anchor (1.3-mm). A standard suprapectoral approach is used for the tenodesis. A 1.3-mm drill bit is used to drill through the midportion of the biceps tendon and underlying bone to make a pilot hole. Next, the Y-Knot anchor is passed through the tendon and anchored on the underlying bone. A wrapping suture technique is then used to wrap around, tension, and secure the LHB tendon with the aid of a shuttling polydioxanone suture. The construct is fixed by tying down both suture limbs in a nonsliding fashion. This Technical Note describes an alternative method for all-arthroscopic suprapectoral biceps tenodesis using an all-suture anchor with a small diameter to minimize trauma to the tendon.

A Simple, All-Arthroscopic, Knotless Suture Lasso Loop Technique for Suprapectoral Biceps Tenodesis.

Project description:A variety of pathology of the long head of the biceps tendon can contribute to anterior shoulder pain in adults that can be managed with either arthroscopic tenotomy or tenodesis when conservative treatment fails. Biceps deformity or the Popeye sign is a major concern in patients after tenotomy. Biceps tenodesis can be performed in a variety of ways with different sized anchors and at different locations (suprapectoral or subpectoral). Several studies have shown that patient outcomes and complication rates are similar between all-arthroscopic suprapectoral biceps tenodesis and open subpectoral biceps tenodesis. We describe a simple, knotless, arthroscopic intra-articular biceps tenodesis technique using a 1.5-mm LabralTape lasso loop technique and a 2.9-mm PushLock anchor.

The Loop 'N' Tack Biceps Tenodesis: An All-Arthroscopic, Intra-Articular Technique.

Project description:Tenodesis and tenotomy of the long head of the biceps are treatment options for a wide range of pathologies without clear superior technique or site of fixation. Clinical outcomes comparing numerous techniques for tenotomy versus tenodesis have resulted in similar pain relief; however, tenotomy may result in a cosmetic "Popeye" deformity and fatigue pain. We present a quick, simple, and knotless technique for tenodesis of the long head of the biceps at the proximal aspect of the bicipital grove that can be completed entirely arthroscopically. This technique uses suture to secure a tenotomized proximal biceps tendon to a knotless anchor just proximal to the subscapularis tendon at the proximal biceps groove. The tensionless repair allows the biceps to scar within the biceps groove, thereby reducing subsidence and formation of a "Popeye" deformity and fatigue pain in the biceps seen with tenotomy alone while eliminating the ability to overtension.

Surgical technique for arthroscopic onlay suprapectoral biceps tenodesis with an all-suture anchor.

Project description:The long head of the biceps is a frequent pain generator in the shoulder. Tendinopathy of the long head of the biceps may be treated with biceps tenodesis. There has been great debate about the optimal technique for biceps tenodesis, without a clear distinction between different techniques. Biceps tenodesis fixation may include interference fixation, suspensory fixation, all-suture anchors, and soft tissue fixation. In this technical note, we describe an all-arthroscopic onlay suprapectoral biceps tenodesis with an all-suture anchor.

Transosseous Suture-Based Arthroscopic Suprapectoral Biceps Tenodesis.

Project description:Biceps tenodesis is a well-accepted surgical treatment to relieve pain and dysfunction about the shoulder. Multiple locations and methods of tenodesis have been described, with similar outcomes. Transosseous cuff repairs and tendon repairs have been used for decades as a tried and true fixation method. This technique describes an arthroscopic transosseous technique for biceps tenodesis in the suprapectoral location that is technically simple, fast, eliminates the cost of implants, avoids an incision in the axillae which may be prone to dehiscence or infection, and releases the biceps sheath, which may be related to pain generation. Moreover, the biceps length tension relationship is easily recapitulated using anatomical landmarks.

An Arthroscopic Technique for Long Head of Biceps Tenodesis With Double Knotless Screw.

Project description: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 knot-tying 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 tendon-to-bone healing and strengthening of the tenodesis construct.
