[Results] Initial WOMAC scores and timed up and-go times were significantly higher in Group 1 than in Group 2. Both treatments resulted in significant improvements
in all measured parameters, but no significant difference was detected between Group A and B. [Conclusion]
Patients with PATB tend to have more severe pain, more altered functionality, and greater disability than those with
KOA but without PATB. Both corticosteroid injection and PT are effective methods of treatment for PATB. Injection
therapy can be considered an effective, inexpensive and fast therapeutic method.
