Abstract
Tendinopathy is a clinical condition characterized by pain and dysfunction related to mechanical loading of a tendon. While often self-limited and responsive to conservative measures, such as activity modification and exercised-based rehabilitation, a subset of patients go on to develop chronic and recalcitrant symptoms. While the optimal treatment for this group remains poorly defined in the literature, minimally invasive ultrasound-guided mechanical treatments have shown favorable results. In this chapter we review ultrasound-guided needle tenotomy/fenestration and ultrasound-guided tenotomy and debridement with the Tenex Health TX system. Procedural technique, post-procedure care and rehabilitation, and patient selection are discussed.
