The Biceps Matter: The Emerging Role of the Long Head of the Biceps With Rotator Cuff Pathology (2024 Annual Meeting)

Registration

$40 for AANA-Members
$80 for Non-Members

ICL Description

Once considered vestigial with many opting for tenotomy in standard rotator cuff cases, the long head of the biceps now serves as a crucial autograft source for complex and irreparable rotator cuff tears. The course will examine current literature and compare tenotomy to tenodesis using various techniques, including inlay versus only, suprapec versus subpec and different fixation methods, weighing their pros and cons. The course will also review and demonstrate the latest biceps tendon graft techniques for complex rotator cuff pathology through case-based examples. Faculty will demonstrate its use in-situ, transposed from the biceps groove as a "Bio-SCR," and as a free graft for bursal-sided augmentation in tears requiring biological augmentation.
