Endoscopic SpeedBridge Procedure for the Treatment for Insertional Achilles Tendinopathy: The Snake Technique.


ABSTRACT: Surgical treatment of insertional Achilles tendinopathy is indicated in case of failure of conservative therapy. A choice is then made within a large spectrum of procedures from minimally invasive techniques such as endoscopic calcaneoplasty to more invasive procedures, such as dorsal closing wedge calcaneal osteotomy. Isolated calcaneoplasties can lead to poor results in cases of pre-existing Achilles tendon lesions; in these cases the tendon disinsertion is justified. In this context, we describe an endoscopic treatment of insertional Achilles tendinopathy.
