Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of Extravascular Laser System on Osgood-Schlatter Disease Methods: In this study, we treated the 6 cases of children who were diagnosed with Osgood-Schlatter disease with Extravascular Laser System. 4 of them were treated with acupuncture as well, the other 2 were given with combined acupuncture and Blood-pricking Treatment. For evaluation, 6 children explained the degree of pain relief by comparing with degree of pain before treatment. Results: Extravascular Laser System for Osgood-Schlatter Disease resulted in a significant decline in the subjective pain degree. All of them were almost cured. The average treatment times was 6.7 times, and the average treatment period was 26.7days. Conclusions We report the good result of the efficacy of extravascular laser system on Osgood-Schlatter Desease. Cases in this study, however, were small in number. Therefore more study is required.
