Biomechanical analysis of subpectoral biceps tenodesis: effect of screw malpositioning on proximal humeral strength.

BACKGROUND Humeral fracture after subpectoral tenodesis of the long head of biceps tendon (LHB) is a rare but devastating complication. PURPOSE To determine whether malpositioned (laterally eccentric) tenodesis screw placement has an influence on humerus strength reduction compared with central placement. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS Two groups, each consisting of 10 ...

Subpectoral Biceps Tenodesis Using an Expanding PEEK Device

In this Technical Note, we describe a method of mini-open long head biceps subpectoral tenodesis. The implant used is a threadless expanding PEEK (polyether ether ketone) interference device that fixes the biceps tendon in a drill hole in the humerus under the inferior border of the pectoralis major tendon. The diameter of the drill hole varies between 6 and 8 mm depending on the width of the t...

Humeral fracture following subpectoral biceps tenodesis in 2 active, healthy patients.

Pathology involving the long head of the biceps tendon is a common and significant cause of shoulder pain. For active patients with refractory biceps tendinosis, tenodesis of the tendon to either soft tissue or the humerus is the preferred surgical treatment. Subpectoral biceps tenodesis to the humeral diaphysis with an interference screw has been gaining popularity as an effective method for t...

Biomechanical evaluation of subpectoral biceps tenodesis: dual suture anchor versus interference screw fixation.

BACKGROUND Subpectoral biceps tenodesis has been reliably used to treat a variety of biceps tendon pathologies. Interference screws have been shown to have superior biomechanical properties compared to suture anchors; although, only single anchor constructs have been evaluated in the subpectoral region. The purpose of this study was to compare interference screw fixation with a suture anchor co...

Arthroscopic Suprapectoral and Open Subpectoral Biceps Tenodesis: A Comparison of Location, Restoration of Length-Tension and Mechanical Strength Between Techniques

PURPOSE This study aimed to (1) evaluate the ex vivo restoration of the long head biceps length-tension for both arthroscopic suprapectoral biceps tenodesis (ASPBT) and open subpectoral biceps tenodesis (OSPBT) techniques and (2) assess how location in the proximal humerus affects pullout strength for tenodesis using an interference screw implant. METHODS Eighteen matched cadaveric shoulders ...
