Ultrasound-guided treatment of medial collateral ligament calcification of the knee with TenJet™: a case report.

Abstract

Calcification of the medial collateral ligament is a rare cause of medial knee pain along with functional impairment. Most cases are asymptomatic but those that are symptomatic typically respond to conservative management. However, in those instances with persistent symptoms that desire further intervention but want to minimize the risks associated with surgery, we present a novel approach for calcium removal with an ultrasound-guided percutaneous needle tenotomy with TenJet™ as a reasonable treatment modality.
