Advanced Minimally Invasive Treatment
For chronic hip tendinopathy — particularly gluteal and iliopsoas tendon conditions — that has not resolved with physical therapy and injections, a minimally invasive procedure is available that physically removes the degenerative tissue at the source.
How it works
Under continuous ultrasound guidance, the physician makes a small incision and advances a small-gauge device directly to the degenerative gluteal or iliopsoas tendon tissue. A high-pressure saline jet emulsifies and removes the diseased collagen through an integrated aspiration channel while healthy surrounding fibers are preserved. Performed in an office or clinic under local anesthesia — no surgical center or general anesthesia required. The procedure typically takes 15–30 minutes.
Who is a candidate
Patients with greater trochanteric pain syndrome, gluteal tendinopathy, or iliopsoas tendinopathy who have failed physical therapy and injection-based treatments are often ideal candidates. Because the procedure targets only the diseased portion of the tendon under real-time imaging, it can be used in situations where repeated injections are no longer appropriate or effective. Atlanta pain management physicians including those at OlympusMD and the Center for Pain Management offer this procedure.
