Tips
| For temporary fixation of the tendon, we recommend using spinal needles of a suitable diameter. |
| Alternatively, for distal temporary fixation, a wire can be used instead of spinal needle. This eliminates overtension or weakness of anatomical balance of the tendon. |
| It is important to avoid excessive decortication of the bicipital groove, which may further cause screw migration. |
