“…This process may lead to chronic patellar tendinosis (Jumper's knee), which affects more than 40% of sports players (6). Approximately 10% of the athlete population becomes symptomatic at one time in their life (10). The occurrence of patellar tendinosis in adolescent athletes has been observed in a wide range of between 7% and 36% (5,11,12), which is in agreement with the results of the present study (21.7%).…”

“…Multiple surgical techniques have been reported including open as well as arthroscopic procedures. 1,9,[11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][38][39][40][41] The reported surgical procedures for patellar tendinosis consist of patellar tenotomy with excision of abnormal tissue in the tendinosis lesion and induction of tendon repair and ultrasound-guided percutaneous longitudinal tenotomy, 42 as well as debridement/resection of degenerative tissue, the drilling of holes in the inferior patellar pole to induce healing, 43 or the resection of the lower patellar pole. 44 Comparable clinical results for open and arthroscopic treatment are described in the literature.…”

“…In approximately 10% of conservatively treated patients, conservative treatment fails and surgery is needed. 9,10 Different open and arthroscopic surgical techniques have been described in the literature. 9,[11][12][13][14][15][16][17] However, there is still no consensus on the best surgical treatment option for chronic patellar tendinosis.…”

“…L'utilizzo delle radiofrequenze, inoltre, permette la denervazione del polo inferiore di rotula sempre associato al "debridement" artroscopico del tendine rotuleo [22]. Altri Autori [23] associano il "debridement" artroscopico del tendine, attraverso radiofrequenze, a un "release" inserzionale dello stesso a livello del polo inferiore di rotula. Ultimamente, visti anche i non sempre soddisfacenti risultati ottenuti dai trattamenti suddetti, si è sviluppato un concetto terapeutico definibile "biologico" che mira ad aumentare localmente (PRP, "platelet-rich plasma") la concentrazione delle piastrine autologhe, strutture adibite al rilascio di fattori di crescita e di riparazione tissutale.…”
