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.

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.

Mini-Open Distal Biceps Tendon Repair Using All-Suture Anchors.

Project description:Distal biceps tendon ruptures are uncommon injuries that can cause impairment in range of motion and function. While distal bicep tendon repair to the radial tuberosity has been demonstrated to restore function and strength, there is a lack of consensus on the optimal technique. The purpose of this Technical Note and video is to provide our preferred method of repair using an open, onlay-tissue fixation with all-suture anchors (FiberTak; Arthrex) and anatomic positioning of the biceps tendon on the radial tuberosity.

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.

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

Project description: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.

Anatomic Single-Incision Repair of Distal Biceps Tendon Ruptures Using Flexible Reamers.

Project description:Distal biceps tendon ruptures are treated operatively in active healthy individuals. Treatment consists of either single- or double-incision techniques, each with its own set of advantages and complications. The double incision was traditionally preferred for a more anatomic reattachment of the distal biceps tendon, but there has been renewed interest in the single-incision anterior approach given its lower risk for heterotopic ossification. However, current single-incision techniques cannot achieve anatomic reconstruction of the distal biceps because of a restricted operational angle with standard rigid instruments. The purpose of this study was to introduce a single-incision technique using flexible instrumentation, flexible guide pins, and flexible reamers that allows for an insertion point that better approximates the anatomic footprint of the distal biceps on the tuberosity. This offers the theoretical advantage of restoring forearm supination mechanics, while still maintaining the benefits of a single limited anterior exposure.

Anatomic Single-Incision Repair of Distal Biceps Tendon Ruptures Using Intramedullary Soft Anchors.

Project description:Distal biceps tendon ruptures are uncommon injuries responsible for only 3% of all injuries to the biceps tendon. For most of these cases, unless the patient is elderly or infirm, conservative management should be avoided and the injury should be treated with a surgical procedure to reattach the bicep tendon to the radial tuberosity. In this Technical Note and accompanying video, we describe an anatomic single-incision technique using 2 intramedullary soft anchors, which decreases the likelihood of complications associated with bicortical drilling and metal suspensory fixation.

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.

The distal triceps tendon insertional anatomy-implications for surgery.

Project description:Background:Improved knowledge of the distal triceps insertion is needed as a result of an increase in procedures involving this area, including distal triceps repair, posterior capsulectomy, and olecranon tip osteotomy for coronoid reconstruction. Materials and methods:Five pair-matched upper limbs were dissected to study the morphology and dimension of the distal triceps tendon, triceps tendon insertion, capsular insertion on the olecranon, and triceps lateral retinaculum. Muscle origins of the triceps insertions were identified proximally. Results:Three distinct insertional areas were found in the olecranon corresponding to the posterior capsular insertion, the deep muscular portion, and the superficial tendinous portion of the triceps with areas of 1.5, 1.2, and 2.8?cm2, respectively. The deep muscular head corresponded to the medial head of the triceps and the tendinous portion corresponded to the long and lateral heads and correlated with the height of the specimen. The triceps width at insertion was 2.6?±?0.5 cm (standard deviation), and the triceps lateral retinaculum extended the tendon laterally for 2.5?±?0.7 cm. The tendinous portion of the triceps tendon extended proximally 15.3 ±?1.4 cm. The triceps inserted at a mean of 1.1?cm from the tip of the olecranon. Conclusions:The distinct insertional heads of the triceps provides additional knowledge that can aid in diagnosing and treating partial triceps tears. In addition, a safe zone for capsulectomy and olecranon tip osteotomy is described that can be used to increase the safety of these procedures.

Distal Patellar Tendon SpeedBridge Repair.

Project description:Patellar tendon ruptures are rare injuries in young athletes, resulting in disruption of the extensor mechanism, and require surgery for functional recovery. Several techniques have been reported, including end-to-end repair and single-row suture anchor constructs. The strength of these repairs has been questioned, and they are commonly augmented. We endorse a double-row repair technique that provides an anatomic restoration of the footprint, has high fixation strength, eliminates the need for graft augmentation, and allows early motion.
