Techniques and reconstruction systems for soft tissue surgical repairs. The biceps tenodesis technique of the present invention provides fixation of a single diameter of the biceps tendon in a socket without the need for externalizing the tendon and without the need to pass any suture (or similar material) through any portion of the tendon (i.e., without the need to stitch or whipstitch any area/portion of the tendon). The technique improves the biomechanics of the combined fixation and helps overcome surgeons concerns about rapid return to ADLs.
