The recent literature shows that imaging modalities, physical examination tests, and glenohumeral arthroscopy all have low sensitivities and specificities with respect to the diagnosis of the long head of biceps tendon pathology. Biceps tenoscopy is a strategy that aims to reduce the rate of missed diagnoses by improving visualization of the extra-articular part of the tendon. This is an area of predilection of pathology that is not adequately visualized with conventional arthroscopic techniques. This technical note presents the surgical technique for biceps tenoscopy.
近期文献表明,就肱二头肌长头肌腱病变的诊断而言,影像学检查、体格检查以及肩关节镜检查的敏感性和特异性均较低。肱二头肌肌腱镜检查是一种旨在通过改善肌腱关节外部分的可视化来降低漏诊率的策略。这是一个病变好发部位,传统关节镜技术无法充分观察到该部位。本技术说明介绍了肱二头肌肌腱镜检查的手术技术。
