Repair of distal biceps tendon ruptures using the EndoButton.
A transverse skin incision 2 cm distal to the elbow skin crease was made and the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve was protected. In acute cases the the retracted biceps tendon and the tendon tract were readily identified. With the elbow in full extension and supination, the radial tuberosity was exposed. A cortical window to accommodate the tendon was made with a burr. A drill was advanced ...
متن کاملSingle-Incision Anatomic Repair Technique for Distal Biceps Tendon Rupture Using Tunneling Device
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 stren...
متن کاملDistal Biceps Tendon Repair: 1-Incision Versus 2-Incision Techniques
Treatment options for distal biceps tendon ruptures include nonoperative and operative approaches. Candidates for conservative nonoperative management include elderly low-demand patients, those in whom surgery is contraindicated because of medical comorbidities, and those who are unable to adhere to the strict postoperative rehabilitation regimen. Data have clearly shown the superiority of oper...
متن کاملPosterior interosseous nerve incarceration with endobutton repair of distal biceps.
Distal biceps ruptures are uncommon injuries that comprise approximately 3% of all biceps pathology. This injury is most commonly seen in 40- to 60-year-old men, and the mechanism of injury involves a forceful extension movement to a flexed elbow. Without surgical intervention, patients are left with measurable weakness in elbow flexion and supination as well as a cosmetic deformity that often ...
متن کاملAnatomic Single-Incision Repair of Distal Biceps Tendon Ruptures Using Flexible Reamers
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 gi...
