Abstract

Traditionally, the management of rotator cuff tears in elderly individuals has involved surgical intervention, specifically biceps tenotomy. However, surgical procedures come with inherent medical risks and significant financial costs. As an alternative, ultrasound-guided biceps tenotomy combined with corticosteroid has emerged as a highly effective, well-tolerated, and cost-efficient option. This article aims to describe the procedural technique of nonsurgical management using ultrasound-guided biceps tenotomy combined with corticosteroid injection.
