Unicortical Proximal Subpec Tenodesis

Reuben Gobezie, MD, (Cleveland, OH) demonstrates his technique for unicortical subpec biceps tenodesis using the Proximal Tenodesis Kit and Tension Slide Technique. The Proximal Tenodesis Button is 8.5 mm long and is pre-threaded onto an inserter. Angled ends on the button help promote a toggle effect when the button contacts the opposite cortex. The sutures can be loaded into the button to perform the tension slide technique to easily and reliably draw the tendon onto the humerus.
