patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) →
sindrome dolorosa femoro-rotuleaPatellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a syndrome characterized by pain or discomfort seemingly originating from the contact of the posterior surface of the patella (back of the kneecap) with the femur (thigh bone).
The causes of PFPS are unclear, but there are several theories. Which tissues give rise to the pain is debated. Similarly, there is no consensus as to what is the best way of treating PFPS, and there is not enough evidence to support any particular management approach.Patellofemoral pain syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
