Summary

We propose a randomized, double-blind controlled trial comparing arthroscopic release with arthroscopic debridement for the management of chronic tennis elbow in an effort to definitively determine whether arthroscopic tennis elbow release is an effective treatment of tennis elbow, and to further provide better recommendations for the use of this procedure, in an effort to improve patient care.

Conditions

  • Tennis Elbow

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Non operative

no surgical intervention

PROCEDURE

Arthroscopic tennis elbow release

Patients randomized to Arthroscopic tennis elbow release (ATER) will receive arthroscopic release of the origin of the extensor carpi radialis brevis tendon through a standard, two-portal arthroscopic technique (medial and lateral).
