Background- Tennis elbow is a common problem for patients whose activities require strong gripping or repetitive wrist movement’s .The present study was aimed to evaluate percutaneous surgical release against the conservative treatment. Methods- The present study was aimed to assess the outcome of percutaneous extensor tendon release in tennis elbow (>2 months duration) and do a comparative evaluation of the group treated by conservative management. During the study period, a total of 62 patients were randomized to receive either conservative treatment (CE; n=32) or treated by percutaneous method (PT; n=30). Results- DASH score analysis showed that DASH score was significantly decreased (P=0.000) at 3- and 6-months in both CE and PT groups. Oxford Elbow score significantly increased (P=0.000) at 3 and 6-months in both CE and PT groups. Conclusion- Conservative method and Percutaneous tenotomy are equally effective in managing neglected tennis elbow (>2 months). Keywords: DASH Score, Oxford elbow score, Tennis elbow.

Lateral epicondylitis of the elbow

Lateral epicondylitis, also known as ‘tennis elbow’, is a very common condition affecting mainly middle-aged patients.The pathogenesis remains unknown but there appears to be a combination of local tendon pathology, alteration in pain perception and motor impairment.The diagnosis is usually clinical but some patients may benefit from additional imaging for a specific differential diagnosis.The disease has a self-limiting course of between 12 and 18 months, but in some patients, symptoms can be persistent and refractory to treatment.Most patients are well-managed with non-operative treatment and activity modification. Many surgical techniques have been proposed for patients with refractory symptoms.New non-operative treatment alternatives with promising results have been developed in recent years.Cite this article: Vaquero-Picado A, Barco R, Antuña SA.

"Tennis Elbow" or Lateral Epicondylitis is a painful syndrome of the elbow which affects a large portion of the adult population, such as heavy labour workers and athletes. The aim of this comparative study is the investigation of the results of the percutaneous technique as a surgical treatment method compared to the conservative treatment for people suffering from this syndrome. Fourty-six patients with 52 suffering elbows constituted the group that was treated surgically and 51 patients with 59 suffering elbows constituted the group that was treated conservatively. The Verhaar et al. scoring system was used for the evaluation of the treatment results both preoperatively or before the beginning of the conservative treatment and 15 days and one, two, four and six months postoperatively. The Verhaar et al. scoring system was also used for the evaluation of the pain, the local sensitivity, the hand grip with the use of a dynamometer and the elbow's and forearm's range of motion (ROM) with the use of a goniometer. It has been demonstrated that the percutaneous technique is superior to the conservative treatment because it provides better results. In addition, the patients who were treated with the percutaneous technique developed a greater range of motion (ROM) in the elbow extension, the supination and mainly in the pronation of the forearm in the reevaluations compared to the conservatively treated group. In conclusion, the percutaneous release of the extensor tendons in the elbow, in cases of the "Tennis Elbow" syndrome, provides very good results. At the same time it is an easier and safer procedure compared to other surgical techniques.
