Summary of Main Steps and Associated Key Points to Complete Described Subpectoral Biceps Tenodesis Procedure

Steps	Key Points
Arthroscopic biceps tenotomy	Perform intra-articular visualization of biceps tendon and superior labrum to assess need for biceps tenodesis procedure
Subpectoral incision with tendon isolation	Place 3- to 4-cm incision about anteromedial proximal humerus, with superior extent of incision at inferior border of pectoralis major, and locate tendon deep within wound
Anchor site preparation and placement	Perform anchor placement 1 cm proximal to inferior border of pectoralis major, in line with bicipital groove
Suture tendon and seat on anchor	Begin suturing 1 cm adjacent to musculotendinous junction, and travel toward cut tendon end with 3 locked suture passes on either side of tendon
