Abstract:Bone tunnel and suture anchor techniques are both equal and sufficient methods for the refixation of distal biceps tendon ruptures with excellent clinical and functional postoperative results. The slight but significantly reduced pronation after bone tunnel refixation was clinically not relevant.
This technique has potential advantages as it allows the possibility of adjusting the tension of the biceps tendon before final suturing, in addition to quicker soft tissue healing.
