In a prospective study the grip strength was measured preoperatively in 17 patients with chronic tennis elbow and postoperatively after a minimum follow-up of 1 year. The grip strength measured with a flexed and extended elbow was significantly less on the involved side (28.4 and 17.2 kg) than on the normal side (36.4 and 36.5 kg) ; postoperatively it increased significantly (33.9 and 34.2 kg) and almost reached the level of the normal contralateral side. An increase of grip strength measured with an extended elbow was correlated significantly with a satisfactory clinical outcome.
在一项前瞻性研究中，对17例慢性网球肘患者术前测量握力，并在术后进行至少1年的随访后再次测量。在患侧，屈肘和伸肘时测量的握力（分别为28.4千克和17.2千克）明显低于健侧（分别为36.4千克和36.5千克）；术后握力显著增加（分别为33.9千克和34.2千克），几乎达到对侧正常水平。伸肘时测量的握力增加与满意的临床结果显著相关。
