Clinical and functional outcomes of distal biceps tendon repair using all-suture anchors
Our findings demonstrate that distal biceps tendon repair using two all-suture anchors via a single-incision approach yields excellent patient-reported outcomes. With a low rerupture rate as well as high return-to-work and return-to-sport rates, this technique appears to be a reliable treatment option. However, the observed reduction of forearm supination strength underscores the need for further research to optimize anatomical footprint coverage.
