    "description": "Open shoulder surgery to detach the long head of the biceps tendon from its frayed attachment inside the shoulder joint and reattach it lower down on the upper arm bone. Moving the anchor point out of the joint removes a common source of front-of-shoulder pain while keeping the muscle working. This is the open version; the same reattachment done through arthroscopic portals is coded differently.",
