Chronic patellar tendinopathy is a common clinical condition that is managed by physical therapists and is common among athletes and non-athletes alike. Patellar tendinopathy is characterized by the absence of inflammatory cells and prostaglandins and an increased presence of fibroblasts and disorganized collagen (1). Therefore, this condition is not inflammatory as physicians had thought but i...
Patellar tendinopathy is very common in patients complaining of anterior knee pain. Its aetiology is still unclear, but neovascularisation seems to play a role. Different treatments have been proposed overtime, from rehabilitation to platelet-rich-plasma injections, but there is no agreement on the best treatment protocol. The final stage of patellar tendinopathy is patellar tendon rupture. In ...
BACKGROUND Patellar tendinopathy identified by imaging modalities has been reported in asymptomatic athletes and associated with tendon-related symptoms. However there is little data in community-based populations. The aim of this cohort study was to examine the prevalence of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) defined patellar tendinopathy, the factors associated with this condition, and whether ...
BACKGROUND Patellar tendinopathy is a common cause of activity-related anterior knee pain. Evidence is conflicting as to whether obesity is a risk factor for this condition. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between obesity and prevalence of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) defined patellar tendinopathy in community-based adults. METHODS 297 participants aged 50-79 years...
OBJECTIVE To investigate if the increased proteoglycans in patellar tendinopathy involves a qualitative change in the types of proteoglycans. DESIGN This is an observational study based on the biochemical analysis of proteoglycans. SETTING : University Teaching Hospital. PATIENTS Patellar tendon samples from 12 patients with patellar tendinopathy and 12 healthy controls were collected and...
Purpose To ascertain whether the Royal London Hospital test is reproducible, sensitive, and specific for diagnosis of patellar tendinopathy. Methods Fifteen consecutive athletes with patellar tendinopathy were prospectively enrolled and compared with a control group of 15 non consecutive athletes with Achilles tendinopathy. Two testers examined separately each patient, using manual palpation ...
BACKGROUND Overuse injury to the patellar tendon (patellar tendinopathy) is a major reason for interrupted training and competition for elite athletes. In both sexes, the prevalence of unilateral and bilateral tendinopathy has been shown to differ. It has been proposed that bilateral pathology may have a different aetiology from unilateral pathology. Investigation of risk factors that may be un...
Patellar tendinopathy (jumper's knee) is a common injury in sports that comprise jump actions. This article systematically reviews the literature examining the relation between patellar tendinopathy and take-off and landing kinematics in order to uncover risk factors and potential prevention strategies. A systematic search of the Pubmed, Embase and Amed databases was performed to identify studi...
Background Ultrasonographic abnormalities of the patellar tendon frequently occur in asymptomatic athletes and it is not always clear whether they precede (and may predict) the development of tendinopathy. Objective This study aimed to investigate by ultrasonography the prevalence of patellar tendon abnormalities in players of "pallapugno" and to establish whether structural tendon abnormalit...
OBJECTIVE Patellar tendinopathy affects a substantial proportion of athletes involved in jumping or kicking activities. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) injections may be a promising treatment used in conjunction with common traditional therapies. CLINICAL FEATURES Patellar tendinopathy is often the result of repetitive or excessive overload on the patellar tendon. Activity modification, cryotherap...
