Tennis and Golfers elbows (TE, GE) are difficult conditions to treat. Ultrasound guided steroid injection (UGSI) is one of the treatment modalities in treating refractory TE and GE. We present our clinical experience and short to mid-term results of patients with TE and GE treated with UGSI. Patients with persistent TE and GE treated with UGSI (Marcaine and kenalog) at a tertiary centre between 2007 and 2010 were retrospectively reviewed. Mean follow up was 4 months (Range 2–21 months). Patients were assessed for pain relief, recurrence of symptoms and surgical release.Introduction
