Anterior Knee

Patellar tendinopathy or 'jumper's knee' is a common cause of anterior knee pain in athletes. This condition is often resistant to therapy and can cause a premature end to a professional sporting career. MRI and high-definition ultrasound are the modalities of choice for evaluating the athlete with anterior knee pain. Ultrasound with a linear, high-resolution 10 or 12 MHz probe is suggested. Comparison is always made with the presumed normal contralateral tendon. MRI, although more expensive, is not operator-dependent. It also demonstrates a more global picture. Fluid-sensitive studies are used in the axial and sagittal planes. The pathology of patellar tendinopathy represents a tendinosis, rather than a tendonitis, due to the absence of inflammatory cells.

Patellar tendinopathy, or Jumper’s knee, is a painful knee condition caused by inflammation of the patella tendon. This condition is most frequently observed in subjects who play sports that require repetitive regular jumping. Jumper’s knee is frequently misdiagnosed as a minor injury and many athletes, like our patient, keep on training and competing and either tend to ignore the injury or attempt to treat it themselves. However, jumper’s knee is a serious condition that requires a correct and timely diagnosis, which often necessitates ultrasound investigation in order to start the most appropriate treatment.
