Actualités dans le traitement des tendinopathies

Tendon injuries caused by overuse have been described as “tendinitis” for years before it was demonstrated that the histopathological process was not due to intratendinous inflammation. Cook and Purdam proposed a continuum model of tendon pathology, which provides a better understanding of the condition and the possibility to adapt the treatment. This allows a better recovery and a lower recurrence rate of the tendinopathy. This article is a review of current treatments used in clinical practice.
