Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the clinical value of diagnostic tests for the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) injuries in the setting of a Patte stage 1 supraspinatus tendon rupture.
Methods: This was a prospective cohort multicenter study of 361 patients aged 30 to 80 years with Patte stage 1 distal supraspinatus tendon rupture. The LHBT was assessed clinically by palpation of the bicipital groove, the speed test, the Yergason test and the Kibler test.

Background: Ruptures of the distal biceps tendon (DBT) can affect the range of motion and strength of the elbow, raising concerns for patients seeking to restore normal function and engage in their regular activities, particularly returning to previous levels of sport participation.
Purpose: To characterize and assess the rate and timing of return to sport (RTS) after DBT repair.
Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4.

Amyloidosis is a deadly systemic disease in which misfolded proteins accumulate in human tissue eventually leading to morbid dysfunction in multiple organ systems. The prognosis of untreated amyloidosis is poor. Orthopedic manifestations of amyloidosis include carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), trigger digit, distal biceps tendon rupture, rotator cuff disease, and lumbar spinal stenosis.

Purpose: Shoulder arthroscopic repair of rotator cuff tears with simultaneous treatment of lesions of the long head of the biceps tendon has become increasingly accepted. However, the clinical outcomes between tenotomy and tenodesis remain unclear. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of tenotomy and tenodesis combined with rotator cuff repair in elderly patients with medium-to-massive rotator cuff tears.

Acute, traumatic distal biceps tendon ruptures are a common injury in the middle-aged athletic male population, with direct anatomic surgical repair being the most effective technique to restore maximal strength. Multiple techniques for distal biceps tendon repair have been described, including single- or dual-incision approaches and tendon fixation with cortical buttons, interference screws, suture anchors, and transosseous sutures. In this Technical Note, we demonstrate an anatomic distal biceps tendon repair technique with a single-incision approach using 2 all-suture cortical buttons.
