| Popis: | Background: Based on the controversy over whether the extensor tendon is the only lesion of lateral epicondylitis of the elbow and numerous reports of concomitant lateral collateral ligament involvement, potential damage to the lateral collateral ligament complex should be considered for the treatment. Methods: About 25 elbows in 23 patients (débridement group) and 22 elbows in 20 patients (reconstruction group) who were diagnosed with lateral epicondylitis and had an average of 22 months of symptoms revealing anatomical lesion on MRI were included. The capitellum-sublime tubercle-radial head (CSR) angle was measured on both sides preoperatively, and the visual analog scale (VAS) and Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS) were measured over 12 months, postoperatively. Results: The initial preoperative mean VAS was statistically significant with 4.6 in the débridement group and 6.5 in the reconstruction group (P |
