Distal Triceps Rupture Repair: The Triceps Pulley-Pullover Technique.

ABSTRACT: Distal triceps rupture is an uncommon but debilitating injury, and surgical fixation is almost invariably warranted. A number of techniques have been described in the literature in which combinations of transosseous tunnels and bone anchors have been used. We describe a modification to existing techniques-the triceps pulley-pullover technique with all-suture anchors. This technique minimizes bone loss, while maximizing the bone-tendon contact area and creating a double-row repair to optimize strength and healing.

Distal triceps knotless anatomic footprint repair: a new technique.

Project description:Distal triceps rupture is a rare injury causing significant disability. Several techniques for treating distal triceps ruptures have been described using bone tunnels or suture anchors. More recent techniques have focused on re-creating the anatomic footprint of the distal triceps tendon. However, the increasing numbers of anchors used increase the risk to the articular surface, and all earlier techniques require knot tying and bulky knots beneath the thin posterior elbow soft-tissue envelope. We describe a technique combining the use of bone tunnels and a single suture anchor to create a knotless anatomic footprint repair of the distal triceps. By using this technique, we are able to create a tension-band construct that self-reinforces the anatomic repair and is very low profile while significantly decreasing risk to the articular surface.

Arthroscopic Distal Triceps Repair.

Project description:In this note, we describe an arthroscopic repair of a degenerative tear of the triceps using a suture weave and an anatomic footprint anchor. We are able to assess, debride, and anatomically repair the distal triceps to its insertion. Compared with open procedures, this arthroscopic repair offers lower morbidity, faster recovery, and improved cosmesis. Our goal was to improve the function and strength of the elbow through this arthroscopic surgical fixation.

Distal Triceps Speed Bridge Repair.

Project description:Distal triceps ruptures are uncommon injuries resulting in loss of elbow extension strength and necessitating surgical repair to ensure optimal functional outcome. Traditional fixation techniques using running, locking sutures through the tendon secured through bone tunnels have been shown to poorly restore the anatomic footprint and are mechanically inferior to anatomic repairs. We endorse restoring the anatomic footprint of the distal triceps, similar to the well-researched rotator cuff repair model.

Single-Incision Anatomic Repair Technique for Distal Biceps Tendon Rupture Using Tunneling Device.

Project description:Distal biceps tendon ruptures are uncommon and generally occur in men aged 30 to 50 years in their dominant arm as a result of a strong eccentric load. Numerous surgical exposures and methods of fixation exist for repair of a ruptured distal biceps tendon. The goal of surgical management is to restore the anatomic footprint of the biceps tendon on the radial tuberosity to maximize flexion strength, supination strength, and muscle endurance. When compared with 2-incision repair techniques, single-incision repairs historically may not have restored the anatomic footprint of the distal biceps. Single-incision repair with the ArthroTunneler is a safe and effective technique that provides the anatomic restoration of a 2-incision approach with the decreased complication profile of a single-incision approach and does not require suture anchors, buttons, screws, or other implants.

All-Suture Anatomic Footprint Repair of the Distal Triceps Tendon.

Project description:Distal triceps ruptures are an uncommon injury, and currently, there is a lack of consensus on the optimal surgical technique for repair. The traditional transosseous cruciate repair has been shown to be nonanatomic and to have a higher failure rate and be biomechanically inferior to suture anchor repairs. The use of anchors significantly increases procedure cost and theoretically increases the risk of complications related to drill and anchor placement. The technique described in this article allows anatomic restoration of the triceps tendon while avoiding the increased cost and risk that may be associated with suture anchor placement.

The Double-Pulley Anatomic Technique for Type II SLAP Lesion Repair.

Project description:The annual incidence and number of repairs of SLAP lesions in the United States are constantly increasing. Surgical repairs of type II SLAP lesions have overall good success rates. However, a low satisfaction rate and low rate of return to preinjury level of play remain a challenge with elite overhead and throwing athletes. Recent anatomic studies suggest that current surgical techniques over-tension the biceps anchor and the superior labrum. These studies suggest that restoration of the normal anatomy will improve clinical outcomes and sports performance. We present a "double-pulley" technique for arthroscopic fixation of type II SLAP lesions. In this technique the normal anatomy is respected by preserving the mobility of the articular aspect of the superior labrum while reinforcing the biceps anchor and its posterior fibers medially.

Pectoralis major muscle rupture repair: technique using unicortical buttons.

Project description:Over the past few decades, there has been increased awareness of pectoralis major muscle injuries necessitating further evaluation of management options and, in particular, surgical repair. Injury typically occurs when an eccentric load is applied to the muscle, such as with bench pressing, and failure usually occurs through the tendon. Although nonoperative management is sometimes appropriate, given the injury's propensity for young, active male patients, surgical intervention is often warranted. Because the injury typically occurs at the muscle-tendon interface, surgery focuses on repair of the avulsed tendon into its anatomic attachment site. We describe the use of a unicortical suture button to repair the ruptured tendon. This technique achieves the goals of strong fixation and anatomic repair of the tendon back into its native footprint.

Acute Triceps Tendon Repair: A Technique Utilizing 3 Curved Tunnels and Proximal Knots.

Project description:Although triceps tendon tears are less common than other tendon tears, complete ruptures require surgical repair to restore the strength of the extensor mechanism of the elbow. There are several described techniques for repair using both transosseous tunnels and suture anchors. Current techniques often result in large suture knots over the dorsal ulna under thin subcutaneous tissue, which can be irritating for patients. Knotless techniques require costly suture anchors. In this technical note, we describe a novel transosseous 3-tunnel technique with proximal suture knots to lessen the potential for postoperative pain.

The Combined "Double Pulley"-Simple Knot Technique for Arthroscopic Shoulder Posterior Labral Repair and Capsular Shift.

Project description:Posterior shoulder instability is more prevalent than traditionally believed. Surgical repairs of posterior shoulder instability have overall good success rates. However, in elite overhead and throwing athletes, a low rate of return to the preinjury level of play after repair remains a challenge. The 2 goals of posterior shoulder stabilization surgery are secure fixation of the labrum to the glenoid and retensioning of the posterior capsulolabral complex. Recent studies have shown significant advantages of arthroscopic anatomic repair over open nonanatomic techniques. We report a combined double pulley-simple knot technique for arthroscopic fixation of posterior labral tears and capsular shift. The technique incorporates several advantages of this hybrid fixation method.

Hybrid Repair of Large Crescent Rotator Cuff Tears Using a Modified SpeedBridge and Double-Pulley Technique.

Project description:An ideal rotator cuff repair maximizes the tendon-bone interface and has adequate biomechanical strength that can withstand a high level of demand. Arthroscopic transosseous-equivalent rotator cuff repairs have become popular and have been shown to be superior to many other methods of fixation. We present an alternative method of repair for large crescent rotator cuff tears that combines 2 well-known methods of fixation: modified SpeedBridge (Arthrex, Naples, FL) and double-pulley techniques. These 2 repair constructs were combined to provide the greatest amount of compression across the footprint while also providing rigid fixation. Ultimately, this can provide an optimal environment for healing in otherwise significant injuries.
