Abstract

Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) or chondromalacia patella is a degeneration of the patellar cartilage existing between both bone surfaces of the femur and the patella. Its most important clinical symptom is characterized by anterior knee pain that is magnified when movements from flexion to extension are performed by the knee while the patella does not move smoothly within the trochlear groove. There are several reasons that can cause this syndrome: a disalignment femoro-tibial, muscle weakness, patellar prior traumatic injury (fracture, dislocation), overuse of the joint, arthritis, etc.
