Key Points of LHB Tenodesis With Cortical Button Technique

The mini-incision should be centered over the inferior border of the pectoralis major tendon.
The LHB should be whipstitched beginning at the myotendinous junction and proceeding 15 mm proximally.
The unicortical humeral drill hole of the anterior cortex should be slightly larger than the tendon size.
The tension-slide technique is used to shuttle the tendon into the humerus.
The construct is reinforced by passing a single suture through the tendon adjacent to the anterior humerus drill hole.
