A member asked:

My fiance needs surgery for tennis elbow and she would like to know which surgery is better to have open or arthroscopic for this surgery?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Percutaneous: I'm partial to a newer procedure called a percutaneous tenotomy. Tiny incision and uses ultrasound to guide a pen-like micro tip to the area of tendon damage. This device then removes the damaged portion of the tendon. I've had great success with this procedure. There is a physician in st. Louis who has done several hundred of these. We try to be unbiased, but go to tenexhealth.Com.
