Distal biceps tendon rupture is commonly repaired via bicortical drilling, extramedullary cortical button placement, and inlay tendon fixation. A retensionable technique with unicortical drilling, intramedullary knotless all-suture anchors placement, and onlay tendon fixation is presented, incorporating up-to-date advances in tendon-bone healing basic science, biceps tendon/radial tuberosity biomechanics, and knotless all-suture implant technology to facilitate radial tuberosity bone preservation, anatomic footprint restoration, improved suture-tendon connection security, and avoidance of drilling and implant-related injury to the posterior interosseous nerve.

Lateral patellar dislocations represent a common orthopaedic condition in young, active individuals who experience patellar instability. Despite increasing interest in re-creating the natural biomechanics and native knee anatomy when performing medial patellar soft-tissue reconstructive procedures, there is no consensus among surgeons regarding the best techniques to use when reconstructing the medial patellofemoral ligament and medial quadriceps tendon-femoral ligament. This article details a method to reconstruct the medial patellofemoral ligament and medial quadriceps tendon-femoral ligament using a single graft and a single all-suture knotless anchor on the patella.

Background: Several types of suture anchors, which differ in their working principles, are available for fixation of ligamentous structures in knee surgery. How the choice of a suture anchor type influences the biomechanical stability of ligament fixation is largely unknown.
Purpose: To compare the biomechanical properties of different suture anchor designs regarding primary stability for tendon fixation and repair in medial collateral ligament (MCL) surgery.

Background: The essential component of managing femoroacetabular impingement involves restoration of the original labral function. Circumferential labral reconstruction (CLR) has shown positive results. However, biomechanical studies of CLR are limited and have not established the efficacy of the modern knotless all-suture anchor (ASA) pull-through technique.

Meniscus root injuries lead to increased tibiofemoral contact pressures and rapid progression of osteoarthritis. Early recognition and treatment with a meniscal root repair can restore biomechanics and help preserve the joint. The transtibial pullout repair and suture anchor repair are the most commonly used techniques to achieve anatomic fixation of the meniscal root.

Isolated posterior shoulder instability accounts for approximately 10% of shoulder instability cases. Patients may present after an acute trauma or with insidious onset and associated posterior shoulder pain. Knotless and all-suture anchor devices have become increasing popular and are often used in arthroscopic shoulder instability cases to avoid knot stacks and allow for the ability to re-tension the fixation.
