| Abstrakt: | Hydroxyapatite crystal deposition disease (HADD) is characterized by the deposition of hydroxyapatite (HA) crystals within the intra-articular and periarticular regions of the joint.[1][2] One of the most commonly involved sites of disease includes the rotator cuff muscle tendons. When involving the tendons, HADD is recognized as the clinical entity of calcific tendinitis. Shoulder barbotage of hydroxyapatite deposition disease is a treatment option for managing pain in patients affected by calcific tendinitis. It is often performed with subacromial/subdeltoid bursal steroid injection. The important aspects of ultrasound-guided shoulder barbotage include the following: Maintaining proper needle technique with constant visualization of the affected tendon during the procedure to avoid injury of adjacent structures. Minimizing patient pain during the procedure. Maintaining sterile technique to limit the risk of post-procedural infection. (Copyright © 2022, StatPearls Publishing LLC.) |
