Core Tip	Both single and double-incision approaches have been successfully used for distal biceps tendon lesions. At present there is no solid scientific evidence to support preference of one technique over the other. However, recently, it has been demonstrated that the 2-incision technique recreates more closely footprint position compared with that of the 1-incision approach. In the present research the Morrey’s modified double-incision repair provided excellent outcome (including functional outcome, satisfaction, elbow and forearm motion, and grip strength) with few post-operative complications, mainly represented by heterotopic ossification and posterior interosseous nerve injuries.
