Summary

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.
