520 3 |a Purpose: Treatment of patellar tendinopathy/jumper's knee with ultrasound-guided sclerosing injections or ultrasound-guided arthroscopic shaving has shown good clinical short-term results. Former studies indicate that the tendon thickness and structure stays unaffected after successful treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the sonographic findings and clinical outcome 3-5years after treatment of patellar tendinopathy with ultrasound-guided sclerosing injections or arthroscopic shaving. Methods: Fifty-seven patellar tendons (43 patients) with chronic patellar tendinopathy were evaluated, with ultrasound, colour Doppler (CD) and visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain and satisfaction with treatment, 3-5years after treatment. Functional status was evaluated with a single question—"Back in full loading activity?” yes or no. Results: At endpoint (mean 46months), there was a significant decrease in anteroposterior thickness of the proximal patellar tendon in patients treated with ultrasound-guided arthroscopic shaving but not after sclerosing injections. Tendon structure had improved, and CD local blood flow had diminished significantly in both groups. There were good clinical results with a significant decrease in VAS for pain after sclerosing injections (VAS 64±18→17±23) with 74% satisfied patients and also after arthroscopic shaving (VAS 77±16→13±23) with 80% satisfied patients. There were no significant differences in VAS between groups. A significant correlation between low local blood flow and high patient satisfaction was found. Conclusions: Tendon thickness decreased over time after ultrasound-guided arthroscopic shaving, and tendon structure and local blood flow decreased after both treatments. There were good, and similar, clinical results with both methods. Level of evidence: III.
