Sonosurgery ultrasound-guided arthroscopic shaving for the treatment of patellar tendinopathy when conservative treatment fails

• Proximal patellar Tendinopathy, commonly denominated as Jumper´s Knee, is widely considered to be a challenge to treat (Abat et al. in J Exp Orthop. 3:34, 2016). The treatment of patellar tendinopathy focuses on reducing if not eliminating the pain and improving function. At present, there are a several distinct treatments oriented to that end, and a “gold-standard” treatment might be in sight.
