The condition is typically treated with eccentric exercises despite the absence of satisfactory and sustained results. Shockwave therapy was presented as an alternative, but there is a paucity of literature, with good outcomes, supporting its use. The purpose of the present single-center, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized trial was to determine if the use of shockwave therapy in combination with eccentric exercises improves pain and function in patients with Achilles insertional tendinopathy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 119 patients with Achilles insertional tendinopathy were evaluated and enrolled in the study from February 2017 to February 2019. Patients were allocated to 1 of 2 treatment groups, eccentric exercises with extracorporeal shockwave therapy (SWT group) and eccentric exercises with sham shockwave therapy (control group). Three sessions of radial shockwaves (or sham treatment) were performed every 2 weeks and eccentric exercises were undertaken for 3 months. The primary outcome was the Victorian Institute of Sport Assessment-Achilles questionnaire (VISA-A) at 24 weeks. Secondary outcomes included the visual analogue scale, algometry, the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score, and the 12-Item Short Form Health Survey.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Both groups showed significant improvement during the study period; however, there were no between-group differences in any of the outcomes (all p &gt;0.05). At the 24-week evaluation, the SWT group exhibited a mean VISA-A of 63.2 (95% confidence interval, 8.0) compared with 62.3 (95% confidence interval, 6.9) in the control group (p = 0.876). There was a higher rate of failure (38.3%) but a lower rate of recurrence (17.0%) in the SWT group compared with the control group (11.5% and 34.6%, respectively; p = 0.002 and p = 0.047).
