Chronic tendinopathy

Percutaneous Microtenotomy under ultrasound guidance combined with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injection is an advanced therapeutic approach aimed at effectively treating tendon injuries in a minimally invasive manner. This method combines the precision of ultrasound with the regenerative capacity of PRP, offering significant results for patients with tendinopathies.

What is Percutaneous Microtenotomy?

Percutaneous microtenotomy is a procedure that involves making small incisions in the affected tendon, allowing for the release of fibrous tissue and promoting regeneration. When performed under ultrasound guidance, the technique ensures maximum precision in locating the affected areas, minimizing the risk of injury to adjacent structures.

Benefits

After percutaneous microtenotomy, the injection of PRP enhances the effects of the treatment by providing growth factors and proteins that stimulate healing and tendon regeneration. The PRP is extracted from the patient's own blood, which reduces the risk of adverse reactions.

  • Precision and Safety: The use of ultrasound during the procedure ensures correct and safe injection, allowing a targeted approach and avoiding damage to important structures.
  • Minimally Invasive: This technique is less invasive than traditional surgeries, resulting in less postoperative pain and faster recovery times.
  • Proven Effectiveness: The combination of microtenotomy and PRP has shown positive results in many patients, promoting recovery and a return to normal activities.
Who can benefit?

This approach is recommended for patients with chronic tendinopathies, such as rotator cuff tendinitis ("shoulder tendinitis"), epicondylitis ("elbow tendinitis", "tennis elbow"), trochanteritis ("hip tendinitis"), Achilles tendinopathy, and other tendon-related conditions.
