Implant-free loop tenodesis compared to arthroscopic anchor tenodesis for the treatment of long head of biceps tendon disorders (LOOPTEN trial): study protocol for a multi-center non-inferiority randomized controlled trial

Implant-free loop tenodesis compared to arthroscopic anchor tenodesis for the treatment of long head of biceps tendon disorders (LOOPTEN trial): study protocol for a multi-center non-inferiority randomized controlled trial
