Resumo(s)
The Osgood-Schlatter syndrome (OSS) is characterized by partial separation between tibial epiphysis
and the anterior tibial tuberosity ossification center, establishing itself as the most common
origin of morbidity localized to the knee during adolescence. It is characterized by its particular
frequency in males aged between 12 and 15 years and physical exercise practitioners. This condition
is self-limited, with an expected spontaneous recovery in 90% of patients. However, symptoms can
happen at adult stage and surgical intervention can be needed. In this paper we review the scientific
literature about definition, clinic, diagnosis and treatment of SOS.
