Arthroscopic Repair of the Triceps Tendon Avulsion—Double-Row Repair

Avulsion of the triceps tendon is a rare injury accounting for less than 1% of all tendon injuries. The triceps is an extensor of the elbow and causes compromised function if left untreated. Complete ruptures should be treated with early repairs for satisfactory outcomes. Most of the repair techniqu...

Zusammenfassung:Avulsion of the triceps tendon is a rare injury accounting for less than 1% of all tendon injuries. The triceps is an extensor of the elbow and causes compromised function if left untreated. Complete ruptures should be treated with early repairs for satisfactory outcomes. Most of the repair techniques describe transosseous repairs, which do not replicate the footprint anatomy of the triceps insertion. This Technical Note describes an arthroscopic double-row footprint repair for the avulsion of the triceps tendon using all posterior portals. [Display omitted]
