Abstract

Background

Lateral and medial epicondylitis, more commonly known as Tennis and Golfer's elbow, can cause chronic pain and significant functional impairment in working-age patients. For patients with refractory epicondylitis, platelet rich plasma (PRP) of which ACP is a type, is commonly used as an alternative to surgical intervention, but its efficacy is unproven.

Objective

To assess the mid-term outcomes of ultrasound guided ACP injections for patients with refractory epicondylitis who have failed conventional conservative treatment.
