U.S., Dec. 18 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07289334) titled 'Tenotomy Versus no Tenotomy LHB in Rotator Cuff Repair' on Sept. 30.
Brief Summary: The function of the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) in the glenohumeral joint generates controversy among researchers. For some, the tendon does not have a significant function in the shoulder, while others consider it acts as a depressor of the humeral head and a stabilizer of the joint. These functions may be enhanced in cases of rotator cuff injuries, where compensatory hypertrophy and/or instability of the LHBT can occur, which can also be a source of pain. One of the imaging techniques used for diagnosing these injuries is ultrasound.
