Arthroscopic Biceps Brachii Tenotomy as a Treatment for Canine Bicipital Tenosynovitis

From the Alameda East Veterinary Hospital, 9870 East Alameda Avenue, Denver, Colorado 80231.

Five dogs of varying breeds, ranging from 4 to 8 years in age, were presented with clinical signs consistent with bicipital tenosynovitis. After failure of conservative treatment, each dog underwent shoulder arthroscopy. Following examination of the scapular humeral joint, the bicipital tendon was severed with a bipolar radiofrequency electrosurgical system. The arthroscopic procedure resulted in a good to excellent outcome for all five dogs.
