www.sportssurgeryclinic.com WHAT IS PATELLAR TENDINOPATHY Imagine a pack of dry spaghetti – these are the collagen fibres that make up a tendon (you have a mix of type 2 and 3). Tendinopathy is a continuous process where a few fibres initially fail – imagine wet spaghetti amongst the dry. These then snap and packets of fluid collect in the structure – eventually the tendon swells and is painful to take load – some tear or snap, but this is rare. It is difficult to manage, Shock Wave, Platelet Rich Plasma and heavy weight lifting are used along with surgery. We still do not under- stand fully the genetic process.
