Abstract

A 13-year-old male basketball player presented to a direct-access physical therapy clinic with a chief complaint of left anterolateral knee pain that began 4 weeks earlier and was exacerbated after playing basketball. Following examination, the patient's primary care physician was consulted and recommended a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, which revealed infrapatellar plica synovialis and juvenile osteochondritis dissecans. <i>J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2019;49(10):762. doi:10.2519/jospt.2019.8922</i>.
