Distal Biceps Tendon Repair Using a Double Tension Slide Technique

Abstract: Distal biceps tendon ruptures are thought to be secondary to an acute forceful eccentric load on a degenerative tendon. Nonoperative treatment following rupture leads to significantly decreased forearm supination and elbow flexion strength. There are several techniques described in the literature for repair. This article describes, with video illustration, distal biceps tendon repair using a double tension slide technique with 2 No. 2 high-tension nonabsorbable composite sutures.

“…The DI procedure, described by Boyd and Anderson [ 12 ] and modified by Morrey [ 4 ], provided a stable and strong fixation allowing a rapid rehabilitation. On the other hand, the SI double tension slide technique as reported by Sochacki et al [ 15 ] preserved the advantages of the tension slide technique without the risk of bone tunnel fracture due to the positioning of the interference screw [ 15 ]. The tension slide procedure with a suspensory cortical button had a high resistance when compared with suture anchors, interference screw and transosseous techniques [ 16 ].…”

“…Ésta nos ofrecía las ventajas biomecánicas en la fijación con bajo riesgo de fractura en el túnel óseo y además, con la sutura remanente se puede dar un punto de reforzamiento en el mismo tendón que nos provee una protección extra en el caso de que las suturas del botón cortical sufrieran daños con el roce contra los bordes óseos del túnel. 26,27 Necesitamos contar con estudios a corto y mediano plazo del riesgo de manejo de las diversas patologías ortopédicas en el escenario de un paciente con una infección activa por COVID-19 para poder tomar la decisión del momento más adecuado para la realización del procedimiento quirúrgico, tomando en cuenta disminuir las complicaciones en el paciente y evitar el contagio en el equipo quirúrgico ante patologías que pongan en riesgo la vida del paciente o la preservación de una extremidad…”
