Soccer participation is increasing among female adolescents with a concomitant rise of injuries in this group. Age- and sex-related factors, such as the transition from skeletal immaturity to skeletal maturity as well as anatomic, physiologic, neuromuscular, and behavioral differences between females and males, all play a role in injury patterns for these athletes. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears in this group have received a great deal of attention in the medical literature and the media in recent years with increasing knowledge about causative factors, surgical management, and injury prevention...

INTRODUCTION: Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is prevalent in physically active people. The multifactorial nature of PFPS necessitates multimodal treatment for this condition. The present study aimed to compare the efficacy of lumbopelvic manipulation alone versus manipulation plus dry needling in physically active patients with PFPS. METHOD: Thirty patients (18 women and 12 men) with a diagnosis of PFPS entered this randomized controlled clinical trial and were divided into two groups: lumbopelvic manipulation alone or lumbopelvic manipulation plus dry needling...

INTRODUCTION: Primary bone tumors of the patella are rare, with an incidence as low as 0.12%. The majority are benign, with giant cell tumors (GCT) being the predominant tumor affecting this sesamoid bone. An associated secondary aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) component with a primary patellar GCT is rarely seen. CASE REPORT: We report a case of a 20-year-old male with long-standing anterior knee pain for 9 months. Having visited multiple clinics and found no relief, the patient presented to us at our out-patient department...

BACKGROUND: The flexion adduction internal rotation (FADIR) test is performed by the combined motions of hip flexion (with knee flexion), adduction, and internal rotation, and can often reproduce anterior hip pain consistent with an individual's presenting pain. Since it has high sensitivity for intraarticular pathology diagnosis but low specificity, understanding the extraarticular pathology that can induce anterior hip pain in the FADIR test may also be essential. This study hypothesized that the interrelationships between the joint capsule and gluteus minimus differ in individuals with and without FADIR-positive pain and aimed to elucidate the in vivo interrelationships at hip internal rotation in 90°-flexion, which is also often restricted in individuals with FADIR-positive pain...

PURPOSE: Chronic pain can affect up to 40% of patients after ankle inversion sprains. The current hypothesis to explain this high percentage of chronic pain is a partial/total rupture of anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) superior fascicle, a structure that has recently been described as intra-articular and as having a different function than ATFL's inferior fascicle. This has created the need for diagnosing ATFL superior and inferior fascicles independently. Therefore, the objective of this study is to investigate if the ATFL's superior fascicle can be visualized on ultrasound, and to describe its ultrasonographic appearance...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: A tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) is a proliferative lesion of the synovial membrane of the joints, tendon sheaths and/or bursae. There are two described subtypes, including the localized and diffuse forms. A TGCT can also be intraarticular or extraarticular. An intraarticular localized tenosynovial giant cell tumor (L-TGCT) of the knee is characterized by nodular hyperplasic synovial tissue that can remain asymptomatic for a long time, but as the mass grows, it may cause mechanical symptoms that may require surgical treatment...

Angioleiomyomas are benign tumors that originate from smooth muscle cells and most commonly affect organs such as the uterus or gastrointestinal tract. This article presents a case of a rarely reported angioleiomyoma located in the retropatellar juxta-articular region of the knee. The patient is a 42-year-old female who experienced chronic anterior knee pain that led to two unsuccessful arthroscopic surgeries. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a well-defined lesion in the retropatellar area, prompting the decision to proceed with open surgery...

The posterolateral corner is critical to knee stability. Neglected injuries have a direct impact on the prognosis due to residual instability, chronic pain, deformities, and failure to repair other structures. Several techniques are used to reconstruct the posterolateral corner, often with autologous ischiotibial grafts or homologous grafts. An option little used for knee ligament reconstructions is the peroneus longus tendon graft. Although reported as a good alternative for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, we found no case using a peroneus longus tendon graft for posterolateral corner reconstruction...

Anterior knee pain is a common condition that affects adolescent and young adult patients, being one of the most challenging consultations for a knee surgeon. The large number of distinct diagnoses makes it a peculiar syndrome, the only similarities being the presence of retro or peripatellar pain aggravated by at least one activity that loads the joint in flexion. From a pathophysiological perspective, an overuse injury should be considered, where the structural unit of the tissue is damaged or its capacity for reparative response is exceeded...

INTRODUCTION: Synovial hemangioma (SH) is a rare benign soft-tissue tumor of vascular origin. That can be extraarticular, juxta-articular, or intraarticular. The knee joint is the most common joint involved. Symptoms can be variable and diagnosis can be made using magnetic resonance imaging. Differentials can be ruled out by biopsy and the gold standard treatment is complete excision of the lesion. CASE REPORT: A 20-year-old male presented to outpatient clinic with a chief complaint of right-sided anterior knee pain for 2 years aggravated for 2 months...
