Video Summary

Pablo Llenas from Valle del Lili Clinic, Colombia, demonstrates arthroscopic subscapularis tendon repair and biceps tenodesis using a single anchor technique. He presents a 66-year-old patient with chronic shoulder pain and massive rotator cuff tear. The procedure starts with releasing the rotator interval, preparing the lesser tuberosity, and placing a triple-loaded anchor. Sutures are passed through the subscapularis tendon using loop stitch techniques for strong reinsertion. The biceps tendon is tenodesed without transfixion to reduce pain and aid healing. The repair restores tendon function and addresses biceps pathology successfully.
