Öz
Anterior knee pain one of the most friquent patient group for physician who deal with musculesceletal system. Presence of many reason of anterior knee pain ,leads many diffuculties in evaluation of this pain. Purpose of this study is to evaluate increase in Q angle whom is comman and contribution to anterior knee pain.50 patients with pain and 50 pain free randomised,Q angles are measured in both group. Q angle of both groups are compered. Statisticaly there was no differerent in Q angle of both groups(p>0.05). Q angle of groups with pain has 15,87 degree, painless group’s Q angle was 14,74 degree. With the result of this study and results of previous study showed increase in Q angle is not reason,rather it might be result of it.
