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


ABSTRACT: 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.
