Ultrasound-Guided Percutaneous Needle Tenotomy (PNT) vs Percutaneous Ultrasonic Needle Tenotomy (PUT) for Gluteal Tendinosis

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2026
The goal of this study is to determine if a newer tenotomy technique utilizing an ultrasound needle is more effective than the traditional tenotomy technique utilizing a simple hypodermic needle for gluteal tendinosis. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is pain from the gluteal tendinosis improved with either technique, and, if so, is there a difference in the improvement between techniques? 2. Is there an improvement in function for gluteal tendinosis, and, if so, is there a difference between techniques?
