Patellar tendinopathy is a common yet misunderstood condition that afflicts a variety of patient populations. This lack of understanding affects the ability of clinicians to provide effective treatment interventions. Patients with tendinopathy often report long-term and low to moderate levels of pain, diminished flexibility, and reduced strength, as well as decreased physical function. Load-management strategies combined with exercise regimens focused on progressive tendon loading are the most effective treatment options for patients with patellar tendinopathy. This review will provide an evidence-based approach to patellar tendinopathy, including its pathoetiology, evaluation, and treatment strategies.
髌腱病是一种常见但易被误解的疾病，影响着各种患者群体。这种缺乏理解会影响临床医生提供有效治疗干预的能力。髌腱病患者常报告长期存在、低度至中度的疼痛、柔韧性下降、力量减弱以及身体功能下降。负荷管理策略结合以渐进性腱负荷为重点的运动方案是髌腱病患者最有效的治疗选择。本综述将提供一种基于证据的髌腱病处理方法，包括其病理生理学、评估和治疗策略。
