Brief Summary

Anterior knee pain , often known as patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS), is a prevalent orthopedic ailment. It usually happens while you're bending your knees. It can affect people of all ages, although it is most common among teenagers, young adults, and athletes . The actual etiology of anterior knee pain might be complicated, encompassing a variety of conditions; it causes disability, discomfort and a negative impact on the quality of life . A number of diagnostic techniques, including plain radiography, computed tomography, MRI, arthroscopy and ultrasound are used to identify the pathologies causing anterior knee pain. Arthroscopy, though accurate, is invasive and can cause complications. Palin radiographs and computed tomography expose patients to radiations
