Video Transcription

Video Summary

The speaker discusses the shoulder injuries commonly seen in baseball players, particularly labral and biceps injuries. They highlight the challenges in treating these injuries and the limited success rate, with only about two-thirds of athletes returning to play and only half returning at the same level. The speaker introduces the concept of biceps tenodesis as a potential treatment method, which involves cutting and repositioning the biceps tendon. They explain the procedure and its success in overhead athletes, noting that primary procedures have higher success rates. The speaker concludes by recommending biceps tenodesis for athletes with biceps symptoms and failed labral repairs. The video is presented by an orthopedic surgeon but does not provide explicit credits.
