Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate safety and effectiveness of both a single percutaneous ultrasonic tenotomy or a single injection of LR-PRP in gluteal tendinopathy. Effectiveness will be demonstrated in a superiority trial design by comparing improvement in pain and function after a single percutaneous ultrasonic tenotomy versus a single injection of LR-PRP in refractory gluteal tendinopathy that has failed conservative management. The investigators hypothesize that both procedures will show improvement to pain and function from baseline to 24 weeks and improvement will remain at 48 weeks follow-up. The investigators propose to test this hypothesis with a series of randomized cases of gluteal tendinopathy treated with one of the proposed treatment arms and evaluate at specified intervals with validated clinical outcome measures.

Conditions

  • Gluteal Tendinitis
  • Trochanteric Bursitis
  • Tendinopathy

Interventions

DRUG

Leukocyte-Rich Platelet-Rich Plasma

LR-PRP will be a concentration of PRP with the addition of leukocytes. Studies have shown that LR-PRP is more effective in treating tendinopathy than leukocyte-poor platelet-rich plasma.

PROCEDURE
