Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) and radial pressure waves (RPW) May improve post-operative recovery following insertional Achilles tendon surgeries: a case-control pilot study
Findings from this study suggest that patients with IAT who underwent perioperative ESWT/RPW therapies may have experienced a faster RTA following surgery.
