Abstract

Background and aims: This paper investigates the relationship between Patellar position and Iliotibial Band length with Body Mass Index (BMI) in the patients with Anterior Knee Pain. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed in the patients of two groups with Anterior Knee Pain, one with high BMI (mean of 29. 8), and the mean age of 37 years old and the other with normal BMI (mean BMI of 22. 6) and mean age of 30 years old. The main outcome measures were pain intensity (VAS), knee ROM, Patellar position and Iliotibial Band length that they were evaluated and compared in the groups. Independent sample t-test, and Pearson Correlation test were applied to analyze the data. Results: The Iliotibial Band length showed a statistically significant difference between the groups, high BMI and normal (P=0. 034). There were also significant differences in the knee flexion range and extension lag (respectively, P=0. 037 and P=0. 008). Pearson correlation test showed a significant inverse correlation between BMI and positive Ober test results (r=-0. 57 and P=0. 0001). Also, a reverse correlation was observed between BMI and tightness of ITB (r=-0. 55 and P=0. 01) as well as a positive correlation between tightness of ITB and pain intensity in patient with high BMI (r=0. 67 and P=0. 001). Conclusion: The results of this study showed a positive correlation between tightness of ITB and the motional limitation of BMI in patients with Anterior Knee Pain, but there was no significant correlation between BMI and the position of the Patella.
