Anyone familiar with this procedure??? Had it done on you???
It is used to treat biceps tendonitis of the shoulder whereby, in kinda layman's terms, the tendon is cut where it attaches into the labrum and reattached on the humerus thereby eliminating the tendon's span of the shoulder joint and hopefully, the source of its irritation/inflammation...
Love to hear from anyone who's had this done; particularly from anyone who enjoyed success with it, but I suppose I should listen to the failures too, but jeeze, I hope those are few...
I have enjoyed reading this older thread. Lot of good encouraging stuff.
Planning to have a biceps tenodesis at the end of the month. It appears I have a rather rare injury to my biceps tendon (longitudinal split tear of the extra-articular cartilage). I tried rehab several times, but the shoulder kept getting reinjured. I never could get to working out as hard as I would have liked.
Brining this thread back after 5 years.
Does anyone have any recent experience with a biceps tenodesis with return to swimming? Specifically with a longitudinal tear?
