Descrição: The authors describe their experience in the treatment of the lesions of the distal tendon of the biceps through the anatomic insertion with Mitek ® mini-anchors using Henry anterior single-incision access. From 1996 to 2007, 12 patients, all male, average age 51.2 years, were treated for a lesion of the distal tendon of the biceps. In all cases, post-operative pain according to the visual analogical scale, the articular motion of the elbow, the occurrence of neurological disorders and the formation of ectopic ossifications appreciated by radiographies were evaluated. Furthermore, the patient’s satisfaction and the impact on his quality of life were assessed using the DASH questionnaire. The results that were evaluated at an average follow-up of 65.6 months were satisfactory: in two cases a temporary deficit in the innervation area of the radial nerve occurred; in two cases ossifications formed at the tendon insertion level but with no clinical repercussions. All patients returned to their previous working activity and their level of satisfaction was good in five cases and very good in the other seven cases. In agreement with literature data, this technique, when compared with other treatment methods, proved effective and safe in the treatment of acute lesions of the distal tendon of the biceps brachii.
