Implant-Free Subpectoral Biceps Tenodesis Is Biomechanically at Higher Risk of Spiral Fracture of the Humerus Compared With Implant-Free Suprapectoral Biceps Tenodesis

Purpose: To compare the likelihood of spiral fracture of the humerus using torsional load to failure after intraosseous biceps tenodesis at the position of the arthroscopic suprapectoral tenodesis versus the subpectoral meta-diaphyseal location. Methods: Eight matched pairs of humeri were dissected....
