Subpectoral biceps tenodesis and transfer for rotator cuff tears: clinical and patient-reported outcomes–a case series
A subpectoral biceps tenodesis and transfer technique in rotator cuff repairs demonstrates low rates of postoperative biceps pain and marked increases in shoulder range of motion. Improvements in patient-reported outcome scores (ASES, SANE), coupled with the absence of biceps-related symptoms in all but 2 patients, support the early efficacy of this novel surgical technique in managing rotator cuff tears.
