Chronic tendon pain can significantly limit movement, performance, and overall quality of life. Conditions such as tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, Achilles tendinopathy, and rotator cuff pain often persist despite rest, physical therapy, or injections. For patients seeking relief without surgery, TenJet Tenotomy offers an advanced, minimally invasive solution.
At Wesley Chapel Spine and Sports Medicine, we provide TenJet Tenotomy as part of our comprehensive approach to treating tendon injuries. This innovative procedure is designed to remove damaged tissue, reduce pain, and restore function—without the need for traditional surgery.
Understanding Chronic Tendon Pain
Tendon pain often develops when microscopic damage accumulates over time. Instead of healing properly, the tendon tissue degenerates, leading to chronic inflammation, weakness, and discomfort. This condition, commonly referred to as tendinopathy, does not always respond well to conventional treatments.
Many patients experience:
- Persistent pain during activity
- Stiffness and reduced range of motion
- Weakness near the affected joint
- Pain that worsens over time
When conservative care fails, TenJet Tenotomy may be the next step toward lasting relief.
What Is TenJet Tenotomy?
TenJet Tenotomy is a minimally invasive, ultrasound-guided procedure that targets damaged tendon tissue while preserving healthy tissue. Using advanced technology, the TenJet system delivers a precise saline stream to break down and remove degenerative tissue through a small incision.
Unlike traditional surgery, TenJet Tenotomy:
- Does not require large incisions
- Is performed under local anesthesia
- Minimizes trauma to surrounding tissue
- Promotes faster recovery
This makes it an ideal option for patients seeking a non-surgical solution for tendon pain.
How TenJet Tenotomy Works
1. Ultrasound-Guided Precision
The procedure begins with real-time ultrasound imaging. This allows the provider to clearly visualize the damaged tendon and accurately guide the TenJet device to the affected area. Precision is essential to ensure only unhealthy tissue is treated.
At Wesley Chapel Spine and Sports Medicine, ultrasound guidance ensures accuracy and safety throughout the procedure.
2. Targeted Removal of Damaged Tissue
Once positioned, the TenJet device uses a controlled, high-pressure saline stream to gently break down and remove degenerative tendon tissue. The damaged tissue is simultaneously suctioned out, leaving healthy tissue intact.
By eliminating the source of pain and inflammation, the tendon can begin a more effective healing process.
3. Natural Healing and Recovery
After the damaged tissue is removed, the body’s natural healing response is activated. Over time, healthier tendon tissue develops, helping to restore strength, flexibility, and function.
Most patients experience gradual improvement as healing progresses, without the extended downtime associated with surgery.
Conditions Commonly Treated with TenJet Tenotomy
TenJet Tenotomy is effective for a variety of chronic tendon conditions, including:
- Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
- Golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis)
- Achilles tendinopathy
- Patellar tendinopathy
- Rotator cuff tendinopathy
- Plantar fasciitis
If tendon pain has limited your daily activities or athletic performance, TenJet Tenotomy may be an appropriate option.
Benefits of TenJet Tenotomy
Patients choose TenJet Tenotomy because it offers several advantages over traditional surgical procedures, including:
- Minimally invasive treatment
- Reduced pain and inflammation
- Faster recovery times
- Minimal scarring
- Lower risk of complications
At Wesley Chapel Spine and Sports Medicine, our goal is to help patients return to their normal activities as quickly and safely as possible.
What to Expect After the Procedure
Recovery from TenJet Tenotomy is typically faster than surgical alternatives. While some temporary soreness may occur, many patients return to light activities within days. A structured rehabilitation plan may be recommended to support healing and restore function.
Improvement often continues over several weeks as the tendon heals and strengthens.
