Surgical management of long head of biceps (LHB) lesions is frequent, often alongside other shoulder issues. When conservative treatment fails, tenotomy (for low-demand patients) or tenodesis (preferred for active individuals) is performed. Subpectoral tenodesis offers advantages, and this study assesses a novel press-fit bony plug technique for this approach, evaluating its safety and efficacy.

| Sub pectoral fixation | Procedure | Subpectoral biceps tenodesis via mini-open incision. Biceps tendon prepared with Krackow sutures, press-fit into bony tunnel using harvested bone plug. Stability checked post-fixation. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| The proportion of patients reported having at least a 50% Increase in their Amircan Shoulder and Elbow Society (ASES) Scoring, and decrease in their pain (measured according to VAS score) with no loss in the range of motion. | The Success rate of sub-pectoral fixation of the biceps tendon was assessed as that there was proportion of patients who achieved a clinically significant improvement in shoulder and elbow function (at least a 50% increase in ASES score), a notable reduction in pain (decrease in VAS score), while maintaining their ange of motion. | 42 Months |
