Synopsis Pathology of the long head of the biceps tendon is a well-known cause of shoulder pain that is commonly managed with arthroscopic suprapectoral biceps tenodesis when conservative treatment fails. The present study aims to present an arthroscopic knotless suprapectoral biceps tenodesis technique known as “Loop ’n’ Tack” tenodesis and to report the clinical outcomes of patients with a minimum 2 years of follow-up. This week’s “MED FACT” discusses a clinical trial from Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, “Clinical Evaluation of an Arthroscopic Knotless Suprapectoral Biceps Tenodesis Technique: Loop ’n’ Tack Tenodesis”. Authors: Robert A.
Duerr, et.al. Key Takeaways: The Loop ’n’ Tack tenodesis technique results in a high rate of patient satisfaction, significant improvement in shoulder outcome score. Objective: To clinically evaluate arthroscopic knotless suprapectoral biceps…
