SURGICAL RELEASE FOR TENNIS ELBOW-A CASE SERIES AT VIMS, BELLARY
Journal Title: Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To assess the outcome of open release in the management of resistant tennis elbows, based on patient satisfaction. METHODS: This was an observational retrospective case series of 25 consecutive patients that underwent surgical treatment for resistant tennis elbow between August 2012 and August 2014 at VIMS Hospital. RESULTS: In twenty two patients (83%) excellent pain relief was achieved and they regained normal use of the limb. One patient (6%) had moderate improvement and two (11%) gained minimal benefit with persistent symptoms. There were no complications in this series. CONCLUSION: We conclude that despite recent advances, this time tested procedure still remains an excellent option when non-operative management has failed.
