Injuries involving the knee occupy the third place in the list of those insured by social security in Brazil, among these cases, osteoarthrosis is often one of its causes, being more common in the female gender with onset around 40 - 50 years [1]. Besides osteoarthritis, postoperative (arthroplasties, ligament reconstruction, and meniscectomies) and impairments that have conservative treatment as the choice (femur-patellar syndrome, tendinopathies, meniscal and ligament injuries, and fractures) commonly are causes of pain, joint stiffness, and progressive loss of function [2-6].
