Distal triceps knotless anatomic footprint repair: a new technique.

ABSTRACT: Distal triceps rupture is a rare injury causing significant disability. Several techniques for treating distal triceps ruptures have been described using bone tunnels or suture anchors. More recent techniques have focused on re-creating the anatomic footprint of the distal triceps tendon. However, the increasing numbers of anchors used increase the risk to the articular surface, and all earlier techniques require knot tying and bulky knots beneath the thin posterior elbow soft-tissue envelope. We describe a technique combining the use of bone tunnels and a single suture anchor to create a knotless anatomic footprint repair of the distal triceps. By using this technique, we are able to create a tension-band construct that self-reinforces the anatomic repair and is very low profile while significantly decreasing risk to the articular surface.

All-Suture Anatomic Footprint Repair of the Distal Triceps Tendon.

Project description:Distal triceps ruptures are an uncommon injury, and currently, there is a lack of consensus on the optimal surgical technique for repair. The traditional transosseous cruciate repair has been shown to be nonanatomic and to have a higher failure rate and be biomechanically inferior to suture anchor repairs. The use of anchors significantly increases procedure cost and theoretically increases the risk of complications related to drill and anchor placement. The technique described in this article allows anatomic restoration of the triceps tendon while avoiding the increased cost and risk that may be associated with suture anchor placement.

Distal Triceps Rupture Repair: The Triceps Pulley-Pullover Technique.

Project description:Distal triceps rupture is an uncommon but debilitating injury, and surgical fixation is almost invariably warranted. A number of techniques have been described in the literature in which combinations of transosseous tunnels and bone anchors have been used. We describe a modification to existing techniques-the triceps pulley-pullover technique with all-suture anchors. This technique minimizes bone loss, while maximizing the bone-tendon contact area and creating a double-row repair to optimize strength and healing.

Arthroscopic Distal Triceps Repair.

Project description:In this note, we describe an arthroscopic repair of a degenerative tear of the triceps using a suture weave and an anatomic footprint anchor. We are able to assess, debride, and anatomically repair the distal triceps to its insertion. Compared with open procedures, this arthroscopic repair offers lower morbidity, faster recovery, and improved cosmesis. Our goal was to improve the function and strength of the elbow through this arthroscopic surgical fixation.

The "Labral Bridge": A Novel Technique for Arthroscopic Anatomic Knotless Bankart Repair.

Project description:Arthroscopic Bankart repair with suture anchors is widely considered a mainstay for surgical treatment of anterior shoulder instability after recurrent anterior shoulder dislocations. Traditionally, the displaced capsulolabral complex is restored and firmly attached to the glenoid by placing multiple suture anchors individually from a 5- to 3-o'clock position. A variety of different techniques using different anchor designs and materials have been described. Knotless anchors are widely used nowadays for shoulder instability repair, providing a fast and secure way of labral fixation with favorable long-term outcomes. However, these techniques result in a concentrated point load of the reduced labrum to the glenoid at each suture anchor. We describe a technique, developed by the first author, using a 1.5-mm LabralTape (Arthrex, Naples, FL) in combination with knotless suture anchors (3.5-mm PEEK [polyether ether ketone] PushLock anchors; Arthrex), for hybrid fixation of the labrum. The LabralTape is used to secure the torn labrum to the glenoid between each suture anchor, thus potentially providing a more even pressure distribution.

Distal Triceps Speed Bridge Repair.

Project description:Distal triceps ruptures are uncommon injuries resulting in loss of elbow extension strength and necessitating surgical repair to ensure optimal functional outcome. Traditional fixation techniques using running, locking sutures through the tendon secured through bone tunnels have been shown to poorly restore the anatomic footprint and are mechanically inferior to anatomic repairs. We endorse restoring the anatomic footprint of the distal triceps, similar to the well-researched rotator cuff repair model.

Single-Incision Anatomic Repair Technique for Distal Biceps Tendon Rupture Using Tunneling Device.

Project description:Distal biceps tendon ruptures are uncommon and generally occur in men aged 30 to 50 years in their dominant arm as a result of a strong eccentric load. Numerous surgical exposures and methods of fixation exist for repair of a ruptured distal biceps tendon. The goal of surgical management is to restore the anatomic footprint of the biceps tendon on the radial tuberosity to maximize flexion strength, supination strength, and muscle endurance. When compared with 2-incision repair techniques, single-incision repairs historically may not have restored the anatomic footprint of the distal biceps. Single-incision repair with the ArthroTunneler is a safe and effective technique that provides the anatomic restoration of a 2-incision approach with the decreased complication profile of a single-incision approach and does not require suture anchors, buttons, screws, or other implants.

Distal biceps tendon repair via new knotless endobutton fixation: A biomechanical study.

Project description:BackgroundDistal biceps tendon repair using endobutton fixation has shown the best biomechanical results in terms of pullout strength. Here, we compared Sethi's enhanced tension adjustable endobutton technique known as the "tension slide technique" to a new knotless endobutton fixation technique without a post-fixation screw. Our new approach is as effective as the tension slide technique in terms of pullout strength and gapping after early mobilization.MethodsA biomechanical cadaveric study with 16 paired arms was performed. With the radius held in place, the distal biceps tendon was loaded at 100 N for 500 cycles and the load was then increased until failure. Gapping after loading cycles and maximum load to failure were recorded and compared.ResultsMedian bone-tendon gapping was 5.77 mm (interquartile range (IQR) 4.84-9.11) for tension slide technique and 4.72 mm (IQR 1.77-6.16) for the knotless fixation (p = 0.047). Median load to failure was 257.87 N (IQR 222.07-325.35) in the tension slide technique group and 407.78 N (IQR 358.54-485.20) in the knotless group (p = 0.047).DiscussionThe knotless endobutton provides better pullout strength and elongation results compared to the tension slide technique without the use of an interference screw, allowing early mobilization in order to faster return to daily living activities.Level of evidence: Basic science study.

Arthroscopic Anatomic Knotless Coracoclavicular Ligament Repair Without Coracoid Drilling.

Project description:Acromioclavicular joint injuries are common in young active patients. A wide variety of surgical techniques exist to address specific complications associated with surgery. Complications after surgery include loss of reduction, fracture of the clavicle or coracoid, failure of fixation, and prominent and symptomatic hardware. This technique aims to reduce these complications with an arthroscopic anatomic coracoclavicular ligament repair using knotless adjustable loop buttons with fifth-generation suture tape and no drilling of the coracoid.

A Percutaneous Knotless Technique for SLAP Repair.

Project description:We describe a percutaneous technique for repair of type II SLAP lesions. Through the Neviaser portal, a spinal needle is used to pass a FiberStick suture (Arthrex, Naples, FL) through the labrum to create 2 mattress sutures that are secured with PushLock anchors (Arthrex). This technique is simple, reproducible, and knotless and requires no cannulas. At the end of the procedure, minimal suture material remains in the joint.

Anatomic Labral Repair in the Hip Using a Knotless Tensionable Suture Anchor.

Project description:To perform a proper labral repair, most surgeons use anchors to secure the labrum to the acetabular bone. We aim to describe a technique for labral repair with a knotless tensionable suture anchor. This technique uses a looped suture configuration, allowing selective tensioning of the repair to maintain the anatomic suction seal of the hip. The use of this technique is easily reproducible and reduces the surgical time compared with previous techniques.
