Abstract
This Technical Note describes the minimally invasive surgical techniques for insertional Achilles tendinopathy: fluoroscopic and endoscopic calcaneal exostosis resection and Achilles tendon debridement. First, two portals are placed 1 cm proximal and distal to the exostosis on the lateral heel. Next, blunt dissection around the exostosis and exostosis resection is performed under fluoroscopic guidance. The remaining space after the exostosis resection is used as the working space for endoscopy. Finally, the degenerated Achilles tendon is debrided endoscopically.
