How Elbow Arthroscopy/Extensor Tendon Repair is performed
Can be performed under regional or general anesthesia, with arthroscopic observation through a small incision. A common practice is arthroscopic debridement of degenerated/scar tissue, minimally invasive treatment of the lateral epicondylar bone surface as needed, and repair or suturing of the extensor tendon, fixed with anchors if necessary. Postoperative monitoring of pain and bleeding, and gradual restoration of joint movement and strength. The above is general health information, not medical advice; the specific plan is subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocol.
