description

The anterior knee pain syndrome and functional patellar instability in the active young person is one of the most complex knee disorders, with a multiple factor and highly variable pathogenesis, with intermingling mechanical and neurological factors. Probably the neural factor is the cause of the well established symptoms in patients with certain mechanical anomalies and a knee overuse.
