However, when conservative treatment fails, surgery is required for resistant cases. In this study, we describe a novel technique for the management of chronic lateral epicondylitis. The advantage of our technique is that all the 3 major components of the disease (as also all types of failure described by Morrey) are simultaneously dealt with, that is, pathology of the tendon, posterior interosseous nerve compression and intra-articular pathology are all addressed. We prospectively reviewed 14 consecutive cases of resistant lateral epicondylitis operated with our technique at our Institute from 2008 to 2013 with a minimum 2 years follow up. We included patients between 18 and 65 years of age who in addition to lateral epicondylitis also had an intra-articular pathology along with symptoms\/signs suggestive of posterior interosseous nerve compression and had undergone a conservative trial of atleast 12 months. Excluded were those cases with localized infection and severe ankylosis, whereas previous surgery on the same elbow was a relative contraindication. Postoperatively all patients showed improvement in the VAS score and grip strength. Twelve of the 14 patients (85.7%) in our series had good to excellent functional outcomes on the Mayo Elbow Performance Index. This technique can therefore be recommended for wider surgical use; however, prospective randomized studies with a longer follow-up would add further evidence about the effectiveness of our technique.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1097\/bth.0000000000000227","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,30]],"date-time":"2019-01-30T01:18:03Z","timestamp":1548811083000},"page":"65-69","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["A Novel Technique for the Surgical Management of Chronic Lateral Epicondylitis"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Abhijeet","family":"Wahegaonkar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Upper Extremity, Hand and Microvascular Reconstructive Surgery, Sancheti Institute for Orthopedics and Rehabilitation"},{"name":"Department of Hand Surgery, Jehangir Hospital, Pune, Maharashtra, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sahil","family":"Sanghavi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Upper Extremity, Hand and Microvascular Reconstructive Surgery, Sancheti Institute for Orthopedics and Rehabilitation"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anup","family":"Bansode","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Hand Surgery, Jehangir Hospital, Pune, Maharashtra, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Satish","family":"Mane","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Upper Extremity, Hand and Microvascular Reconstructive Surgery, Sancheti Institute for Orthopedics and Rehabilitation"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-20230901","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"481","DOI":"10.1016\/S1058-2746(99)90081-2","article-title":"Lateral tennis elbow: \u201cIs there any science out there?\u201d","volume":"8","author":"Boyer","year":"1999","journal-title":"J Shoulder Elbow Surg"},{"key":"R2-20230901","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"259","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-199902000-00014","article-title":"Tendinosis of the elbow (tennis elbow).
