Überlastungssyndrome am Kniegelenk
摘要
Overuse syndromes of the knee are one of the most common complaints in sport injuries. It also can affect people not involved in sports. The cause is mostly muscular but can also involve damage to the joint capsule and cartilage. Additionally, other diseases have to be excluded. A detailed examination is imperative to make a correct diagnosis. A clarification with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) alone is often inadequate when the clinical results are insufficiently documented. This article presents the most important diseases as well as their development and treatment.
