简要总结
This thesis proposes a randomised controlled trial comparing minimally invasive endoscopic surgery with injectable conservative treatment (biologics such as PRP/GFC) in patients with refractory insertional Achilles tendinopathy. The study addresses patients who continue to have symptoms for more than three months despite standard conservative care. It will be conducted at UPUMS, Saifai, the trial will enroll 44 adults (22 surgical, 22 injection group) and follow them for up to 6 months. Outcomes will primarily be assessed using VISA-A and Achilles Pain Questionnaire (APQ) scores, along with return to activity and patient-reported satisfaction. Secondary objectives include demographic profiling and comparison of time to return to pre-injury activity levels.
