Abstract
The long head of the biceps tendon is a frequent cause of persistent anterior shoulder pain. Biceps tenodesis is a popular choice for surgical management of this pathology, with myriad approach and fixation variations described. We describe an all-arthroscopic suprapectoral biceps tenodesis in the anatomic length-tension relation using a unicortical button. This technique offers an alternative method that provides proper tendon fixation at anatomic length with minimized additional surgical morbidity and postoperative complications.
