Optimizando el Biceps Proximal Tenotomia: Suprapec SubPec

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses methods for managing proximal biceps injuries and emphasizes the evolution of surgical techniques. Initially, simply removing the biceps was common, but now there are various fixation methods aimed at preserving and reconstructing the tendon. Proximal and subpectoral tenodesis techniques are highlighted, with newer procedures focusing on minimizing complications and enhancing outcomes. The discussion includes specific techniques like using double-loop suture methods and ensuring proper anchor placement for secure tendon fixation. The video stresses the importance of technique and placement over fixation site, reflecting advancements in surgical approaches for biceps management.
