- Title
Endoscopic Achilles tenodesis: a surgical alternative for chronic insertional tendinopathy.
- Authors
Maquirriain, Javier
- Abstract
This report describes an endoscopic approach for visualization and repair of heel structures potentially involved in patients presenting chronic calcaneal tendon insertion pain. Tendon–bone junction separation allows enthesis debridement. Tenodesis with a knotless absorbable anchor completes this minimally invasive surgical procedure for chronic insertional Achilles tendinopathy.
