Abstract

Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is the most common overuse syndrome in athletes. It is one of the causes of anterior KNEE PAIN in athletic population who come to the sports medicine clinic. Patellofemoral pain is more common among FEMALE ATHLETES especially adolescents and young adults. Symptoms include: persistent pain behind the patella or peripatella. Pain increases on ascending and descending stairs and squatting and prolonged sitting. The aim of this study was to evaluate the PREVALENCE of PFPS in Iranian FEMALE ATHLETES.418 FEMALE ATHLETES aged 15-35 years were examined in five sports: Soccer (190), volleyball (103), running (42), fencing (45) and rock climbing (38). The athletes who had nontraumatic onset anterior KNEE PAIN of at least 3 months that increased in descending and ascending stairs and squatting, had no other causes of anterior KNEE PAIN such as ligament instability, bursitis, meniscal injury, tendonitis and arthritis and no history of knee surgery during the one past year were diagnosed as PFPS. 26/190 (13.68 %) soccer players, 21/103 (20.38 %) volleyball players, 7/42 (16.66 %) runners, 6/45 (13.33 %) fencers and 10/38 (26.31%) rock climbers had patellofemoral pain. Among the 418 FEMALE ATHLETES who were evaluated 70 had PFPS. Rock climbers were the most common athletes with PFPS followed by volleyball players and runners.
