Hidden Long Head of the Biceps Tendon Instability and Concealed Intratendinous Subscapularis Tears

Arthroscopic Evaluation of Subluxation of the Long Head of the Biceps Tendon and Its Relationship with Subscapularis Tears

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the angle between the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) and the glenoid during arthroscopic surgery and its correlation with biceps subluxation on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Furthermore, we evaluated the relationship of this angle with subscapularis tears and biceps pathologies. METHODS MRI and arthroscopic images of 270 consecut...

Subscapularis tendon tears

Dislocation of the long head of the biceps tendon with intact subscapularis and supraspinatus tendons.

O w large body of evidence supports the fact that ubluxation and dislocation of the long head of the iceps tendon are relatively common findings associted with rotator cuff pathology. Dislocation of the ong head of the biceps is often linked to chronic egenerative changes seen with impingement synrome and tears in the rotator cuff, especially the ubscapularis tendon. One report states that medi...
