Jumper's Knee

This condition is described as a strain, or overuse, of the patellar tendon, where it inserts into the inferior (lower) pole of the patella. It is related to the repetitive extensor action of the knee with the generation of large eccentric forces. It has been found that the greatest tensile forces in the patellar tendon occur on landing. It is called Jumper's Knee as it predominantly occurs during jumping-type sports e.g. basketball, netball, volleyball and athletics e.g. triple jumpers, high jumpers and long jumpers. It may, on the other hand, be as a direct result of trauma to the knee e.g. weight lifters who perform squats under load or a fall directly onto the knee.
