Biceps Tendon Sheath Injection: An Anatomical Conundrum

Abstract

The experiment confirmed continuity of the joint capsule and the biceps tendon sheath. These results suggest a low diagnostic utility of peritendinous injections at the level of the bicep groove. Such injections would likely result in intraarticular deposit of the injectate. Nonetheless, this approach may be utilized as an alternative simplified access to the glenohumeral joint.
