Traumatic rupture of the long head of biceps tendon (LHBT) in the young is rare and it is often related to sports. We describe a technical note of a mini open supra-pectoral tenodesis fixed by the "ToggleLoc™" (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, IN, USA) and performed by a two-window approach. The proposed technique guarantees an optimal visualization with low risk of complications and without arthroscopic assistance.

This study compares and investigates the efficacy of 2 different surgical methods for early stage femoral head necrosis and analyze the factors affecting surgical outcomes and long-term femoral head survival. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 48 patients (52 hips) with femoral head necrosis who underwent either the Super-Path or Watson-Jones approach from January 1, 2016, to January 1, 2024. Harris scores at multiple time points before and after surgery were compared using repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA), and a COX proportional hazards model was used to analyze risk factors.
