Abstract

Minimally invasive surgery on the Achilles tendon may be undertaken in an ambulatory setting under local anesthesia, has low cost, and is effective in the short and long term. The aim is to manage the pathologic nerve ingrowth and neovascularization within and around the tendon, both causes of pain and symptom persistence.
