Abstract
Pain under the kneecap, also known as anterior knee pain or patellofemoral pain, is one of the most common reasons why active people seek healthcare. Recently, a panel of 50 experts from 9 countries gathered in Belgium to discuss the potential causes of and best treatments for this condition. A synopsis of this meeting is published in the June 2012 issue of JOSPT and provides new insights and discussion of evidence-based treatments for those who have knee pain. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2012;42(6):573. doi:10.2519/jospt.2012.0505.
