The TenJet System
Susquehanna Orthopaedics now works with HydroCision to provide you with premium care using advanced surgical technology. Our surgeons can now take advantage of the TenJet System that allows them to directly target the cause of your chronic tendon pain during fasciotomy, percutaneous tenotomy, and ultrasound-guided treatments. This state-of-the-art system uses a dual channel, 12-gauge needle designed to administer a controlled rapid stream of saline that separates healthy tendons from diseased ones.
This patented design uses the principles of flow dynamics to form an in-line Venturi suction effect to remove diseased tissue, thereby allowing changes in tendon pathology. The TenJet procedure is an outpatient treatment administered with a local anesthetic and lasts for about 15 minutes, giving patients several benefits of surgical debridement.
