Abstract
ABSTRACT The objective of this review is to analyze some of the biomechanical factors involved in the most common running injuries: anterior knee pain, iliotibial band syndrome, Achilles tendinopathy, and medial tibial stress syndrome/tibial stress fracture. Eighteen studies met all inclusion criteria. Results showed that there is little consistent evidence in the literature to connect any biomechanical anomaly to any given running injury, except for female runners with patellofemoral pain who have an increased peak hip adduction angle at stance phase. This review suggests that assessing and treating hip mechanics could help to prevent knee injuries in female runners.
