Purpose:
The purpose of this prospective study is to investigate the relationship between Osgood-Schlatter disease (OSD) and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Methods:
Seventy-four children with a diagnosis of OSD were referred to child and adolescent psychiatry department for the evaluation of ADHD. Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders was used for diagnostic criteria.
Results:
Diagnosis of ADHD was made in 56 (75.6 %) out of 74 children.
Conclusions:
Results of this study suggest that ADHD is a significant risk factor for OSD. During the evaluation of a patient with OSD, a thorough history should be obtained about the behavioral symptoms that indicate underlying ADHD. In case of suspicion, these patients should be referred for an additional evaluation by a child psychiatrist.
Level Of Evidence:
II.
