ABSTRACT
This paper describes 44 percutaneous epidondylar releases performed on 34 patients with humeral epicondylitis. There were 35 instances of lateral epicondylitis and 6 of medical epidondylitis. Thirty-two of the lateral releases had an excellent result and 3 were unsatisfactory. Five of the medial procedures were rated as excellent and one unsatisfactory. Two of the three unsatisfactory lateral procedures were reoperated upon with an excellent result. The one unsatisfactory medial epicondylitis underwent reoperation and had excellent results. In our experience, percutaneous release has a high rate of success, is simple to perform, does not require hospitalization, and has been without complication.
