Transcatheter Arterial Embolization (TAE) can be described as an image-guided, non-surgical treatment for dealing with tennis elbow which tends to lower abnormal blood flow to the injured area to help you get rid of inflammation and pain. According to a research which was presented at the Society of Interventional Radiology`s 2019 Annual Scientific Meeting, this extremely painful chronic condition affects up to 3 per cent of the U.S. adult population and it is also called as lateral epicondylitis, which one may get from repetitive stress injuries by opting for activities like sports, typing and knitting, and many more.

So, it can be difficult to treat and one may find it difficult to do their real-world activities with ease. Yes, you have heard us here! Simple things like cooking, doing household chores, working can be problematic. According to Okuno, MD, PhD, founder of the Okuno Clinic in Japan and lead author of the study, owing to the frustration caused due to it, many patients opt for  invasive major surgery after years of failed physical therapy and medication use.

“We were interested to see if this technique, already in use in other areas of the body, would be effective for this common, debilitating condition and help people immediately regain a range of motion that many of us take for granted in our everyday tasks,” informed Okuno.Dr.

Okuno`s team conducted a prospective study in 52 patients with tennis elbow who did not find relief from other forms of treatment. The patients received TAE between March 2013 and October 2017 and were followed for up to four years after the treatment.The researchers said they found statistically significant reductions in pain-rating scores, using methods including the Quick Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand scores; visual analog scale pain rating scores; Patient-rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation scores; and pain-free grip strength.

Additionally, images taken in 32 patients two years after undergoing TAE showed an improvement in tendinosis and tear scores.The treatment can be completed in approximately one hour and requires only a needle hole to access the radial artery in the wrist under local anesthesia. A catheter is moved through the wrist to the elbow where the inflamed blood vessels are embolised, preventing excessive blood flow to the affected part of the elbow.The treatment is safe and effective and doesn`t require physical therapy, researchers said. No adverse events were observed and no patients experienced negative effects to the surrounding bones, cartilage or muscles.
