INNOVATIVE ADVANCEMENT FOR THE TREATMENT OF TENDONS

When muscles move in unusual ways or are overused in a variety of repetitive-motion activities, the tendons can become damaged, causing pain and discomfort.

For many people, the answer is rest, stretching, bracing, medicine or injections. In some cases, however, when tendons don't properly heal, patients must often consider invasive surgical procedures that involve removing the tissue resulting in lengthy recovery periods.

A revolutionary new medical device called the TOPAZ MicroDebrider, is now available, offering a minimally invasive alternative for the treatment of tendons. This technology is rapidly being adopted by surgeons around the country specializing in sports medicine procedures. TOPAZ is the only radiofrequency wand indicated for the debridement of tendons1.
