Study Summary
One of the common complaints after long head of the biceps brachii tendon (LHBT) surgery is a Popeye deformity, which can occur with both the tenodesis and tenotomy. Tenotomy using the traditional technique has a higher incidence of Popeye deformity as the residual stump is not fixated in place. However, the more recently-described self-locking tenotomy improves upon this by having a wider stump base to theoretically prevent reduce the incidence of tendon retraction down the bicipital groove. If this technique is shown to result in a similar incidence of Popeye deformity, then it may be preferable to tenodesis due to its advantages of reduced postoperative pain, more rapid return to activity, and reduced surgical time and cost. The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the effect of biceps tenodesis versus self-locking T tenotomy in the management of lesions involving the LHBT.
