Biceps tenoscopy. (A) The blunt rod (BR) inserted through the ASP (Fig 2) into the BTS served as a guide for insertion of the arthroscope. (B) Tenoscopy showed 5 loose OCs. A needle was used to plan outside-in creation of an anterior-inferior portal (AIP) (Fig 2) for the tenoscopic procedure. (C) All loose OCs could be removed with a grasper. (D) The BTS showed villous tenosynovitis. (MR, medial recess.) (E, F) Partial tenosynovectomy was performed with a shaver and electrothermal device. The intact LHBT was left in situ.
