Arthroscopic lateral capsule resection is enough for the management of lateral epicondylitis

ConclusionBoth arthroscopic LCR alone and Arthroscopic LCR with ECRB debridement for the management of refractory LE provide significant improvement in pain and function. Isolated Arthroscopic LCR could be a sufficient surgical treatment for refractory LE. Thus, ECRB debridement or release may not be necessary in every case.Level of evidenceIV.
