[Epicondylalgia]

The authors review several aspects of epicondylalgiae, considering this condition under the angle of pathology, etiology, semiology and clinical examination. Using electrophysiological methods, they attempt better to define the data allowing a precise electrological and topographical diagnosis. A classification of the electromyographical syndromes associated with epicondylalgiae is provided. Finally, the various types of treatments which have been proposed according to the etiology of this condition are discussed.
