Osgood Schlatter’s disease is a condition of the epiphyseal growth plate of the tibial tubercle. The tibial tubercle is a small bump just below the kneecap where the patellar tendon inserts.

Osgood Schlatter’s disease is not exactly a disease although it is named as such. It is a tearing away of the periosteum of the bone at the tendon attachment of the knee just below the kneecap.
