Tenotomy or Tenodesis of Long Head Biceps in Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

NCT02655848 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 98

Summary

During arthroscopic rotator cuff (infraspinatus/supraspinatus) repair, biceps tendon lesions are frequently encountered. However, the most optimal treatment of the diseased long head of the biceps (LHB) tendon during rotator cuff repair remains a topic of debate: tenotomy or tenodesis. The hypothesis is that there is no difference in functional outcome between LHB tenotomy and LHB tenodesis when performed in adjunct to arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.
