Tenodesis patient demographic information along with concomitant procedures performed in the tenotomy and tenodesis cohorts, and the number of patients that received each. There were significantly more female tenotomy patients (P < 0.01) and the mean age was higher relative to tenodesis patients (P < 0.01)
