Reinforcing Anterosuperior Medium‐to‐Large Rotator Cuff Repairs With the Long Head of the Biceps Tendon and Dermal Allograft Patch Using a Knotless Double‐Row Technique

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract We describe a surgical technique repairing medium‐to‐large anterosuperior rotator cuff (RC) tear that combines long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) augmentation with a dermal allograft patch using a knotless double‐row repair. LHBT augmentation is done using a triple‐loaded anchor placed 5 mm posterior to the bicipital groove at the bone ...
