Although triceps tendon tears are less common than other tendon tears, complete ruptures require surgical repair to restore the strength of the extensor mechanism of the elbow. There are several described techniques for repair using both transosseous tunnels and suture anchors. Current techniques often result in large suture knots over the dorsal ulna under thin subcutaneous tissue, which can be irritating for patients. Knotless techniques require costly suture anchors. In this technical note, we describe a novel transosseous 3-tunnel technique with proximal suture knots to lessen the potential for postoperative pain.
