  • Research progress of arthroscopic long head of biceps tendon transposition in treatment of irreparable massive rotator cuff tears

    Objective To review the research progress of arthroscopic long head of biceps tendon (LHBT) transposition in treatment of irreparable massive rotator cuff tears. Methods The domestic and foreign related literature in recent years on the treatment of irreparable massive rotator cuff tears with different LHBT transposition methods under arthroscopy was reviewed and analyzed. Results Arthroscopic LHBT transposition is an effective method for irreparable massive rotator cuff tears, which mainly includes “proximal cut”, “both two cuts”, “distal cut”, and “no cut”. Different methods of LHBT transposition can achieve good effectiveness, but its long-term effectiveness needs further follow-up. Conclusion Arthroscopic LHBT transposition in treatment of irreparable massive rotator cuff tears is simple and effective. The patients can recover quickly after operation with less injury. But the technique has higher requirements for surgeons, and the indications must be strictly controlled.
