Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction With Biceps Autograft: Snake Technique.

ABSTRACT: Many options have been developed to treat irreparable massive cuff tears. Superior capsular reconstruction has been reported as one of the treatment options for relatively young patients with irreparable massive cuff tear. However, this original technique has a disadvantage of requiring a tensor facia lata autograft. It requires another incision at the lateral thigh and can be a cause of thigh pain. This article describes our modified technique for arthroscopic superior capsule reconstruction using the biceps autograft to preserve the long head of the biceps tendon anchors to the glenoid labrum (the snake technique).

Superior Capsular Reconstruction With Double Bundle of Long Head Biceps Tendon Autograft: The "Box" Technique.

Project description:The superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) is an arthroscopic surgical technique recently introduced as an effective solution to restore the defect of superior articular capsule in massive rotator cuff tears that cannot be repaired anatomically. The SCR retains static stability and inhibits the proximal humeral migration, thereby optimizing the force couples about the shoulder. In this surgical technique paper, we present our technique of SCR using a double bundle construct of long head of biceps tendon, called the "box" technique. It is always combined with partial rotator cuff repair.

Biceps Smash Technique: Biceps Tendon Autograft Augmentation for Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Reconstruction.

Project description:The proportion of postoperative retears after arthroscopic rotator cuff reconstruction remains constant despite advancement of suture techniques and improved anchor implants. The commonly degenerative nature of rotator cuff tears can carry the risk of compromised tissue. Several techniques have been developed to biologically enhance rotator cuff repair, and a considerable number of autologous, allogeneic, and xenogenous augmentation methods have been described. This article introduces the biceps smash technique, an arthroscopic augmentation procedure for posterosuperior rotator cuff reconstruction using an autograft patch of the long head of the biceps tendon.

Arthroscopic partial Superior Capsular Reconstruction using the Long Head of the Biceps Tendon-Technique Description.

Project description:Superior capsule reconstruction is a valuable intervention for some patients who present symptomatic irreparable posterosuperior rotator cuff tears. Superior capsule reconstruction techniques most commonly use either fascia lata autograft or dermal allograft. Both options have literature support but also present a few drawbacks such as donor site issues, potential allergic reactions, and high cost of the operation. The long head of biceps is a potential graft for rotator cuff tears and may be particularly useful in bridging the gap in irreparable massive rotator cuff tears, specifically as an alternative to more traditional superior capsular reconstruction. Long head of biceps transposition may offer unique and significant advantages over other techniques and can be an effective and valuable alternative in selected cases. The tendon's insertion into the glenoid is left intact, whereas laterally it is transferred to a more central humeral head position and sutured with anchors onto the footprint of the supraspinatus tendon acting as a superior static stabilizer of the shoulder joint. The purpose of this article is to propose a technical modification of superior capsular reconstruction using long head of the biceps tendon autograft.

The "Pull-Over" Technique for Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction.

Project description:The management of irreparable rotator cuff tears is a difficult problem to deal with. The options include nonoperative route with anterior deltoid exercises, debridement with or without long head of biceps tenotomy, partial rotator cuff repair, tuberoplasty, muscle transfer, patch augmentation, biodegradable spacers, and reverse shoulder arthroplasty. None of these options are without their limitations. In recent years, arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction has gained popularity as an alternative technique to address irreparable rotator cuff tears. Arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction, however, is technically difficult. The purpose of this technical note is to describe a simple and reproducible technique for this procedure that addresses some of the challenges involved.

Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction (ASCR): All Soft Anchors Technique.

Project description:Rotator cuff tears are among the most common orthopaedic injuries. If not treated, they can result in a massive irreparable tear because of tendon retraction and muscle atrophy. Mihata et al. in 2012 described the technique of superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) using fascia lata autograft. This has been considered an acceptable and effective method for treating irreparable massive rotator cuff tears. We describe an arthroscopically assisted superior capsular reconstruction (ASCR) technique using all soft anchors to preserve the bone stock and reduce possible hardware complications. Moreover, knotless anchors for the lateral fixation make the technique easier to reproduce.

A Lasso-Loop Traction Technique for Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction.

Project description:Irreparable rotator cuff tears (RCTs) cause shoulder pain and disfunction. Management of RCT patients has classically been difficult due to few treatment options. Since Mihata et al. in 2013 introduced the superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) technique as a treatment option, it has become widespread among surgeons, especially for young active patients in whom reverse shoulder arthroplasty is not recommended. With SCR, a reduced humeral head can be maintained and superior displacement is avoided, improving shoulder pain and restoring active shoulder motion. A variety of grafts may be used, but the surgery can be technically complicated. An arthroscopic lasso-loop traction technique for SCR is described here, which simplifies graft shoulder reduction by traction from the anteromedial and posteromedial portals.

Superior Capsular Reconstruction using the Long Head of the Biceps Tendon: The Biceps Loop Technique.

Project description:Irreparable rotator cuff tears can be treated in several ways. Superior capsular reconstruction has been reported as an excellent option, particularly for the young and active patients. We propose capsule reconstruction using the long head of the biceps tendon in a modified way. After its tenotomy at the musculotendinous junction, the long head is rerouted through a humeral bone tunnel and attached to a suture anchor in the posterior aspect of the superior glenoid rim. Further investigation is required, but this modified technique appears promising.

Arthroscopic Transosseous Superior Capsular Reconstruction.

Project description:Superior capsular reconstruction is a common treatment option for irreparable rotator cuffs. Arthroscopic surgery procedures mostly use anchor-based methods. However, difficulty in preoperative graft measurement and intra-articular knot-tying present an obstacle for most sport surgeons. Complementing the known advantages of the transosseous technique in rotator cuff repair, a feasible, economical arthroscopic transosseous superior capsular reconstruction technique is described in this Technical Note. This procedure results not only in similar fixation strength and stability and greater bone stock but also in greater cost effectiveness due to using fewer anchors. This Technical Note describes the procedure in detail and compares it with conventional procedures.

Arthroscopic In Situ Superior Capsular Reconstruction Using the Long Head of the Biceps Tendon.

Project description:Large to massive rotator cuff tears are challenging to repair, although there are several options for dealing with them. Among them, superior capsular reconstruction was recently introduced as an effective procedure for retaining the static stability of the shoulder joint and preventing the progression to cuff tear arthropathy. The purpose of this technique-based article is to describe a surgical option, called arthroscopic in situ superior capsular reconstruction, for large to massive rotator cuff tears using the long head of the biceps tendon.

Biceps Transposition for Biological Superior Capsular Reconstruction.

Project description:Reconstruction of the superior capsule is a valuable intervention for some patients in whom massive, irreparable posterosuperior rotator cuff tears are identified. Superior capsular reconstruction techniques most commonly use either tensor fascia lata autograft or dermal allograft. As an alternative to more traditional superior capsular reconstruction, we commonly transpose and incorporate the biceps tendon into the rotator cuff repair construct in such patients instead. This biological superior capsular reconstruction biceps transposition technique ("bio-SCR"), described herein, provides increased structural integrity and supplemental tendon graft using viable cells while potentially serving the role of the superior capsule. As such, transposition of the biceps tendon may offer unique and significant advantages over other techniques and can be an effective and valuable alternative in appropriate cases.
