Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of electroacupuncture at patellofemoral joint in treating knee osteoarthritis. Method Sixty-three patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group. The treatment group was intervened by electroacupuncture at patellofemoral joint, while the control group was by oral administration of Diclofenac sodium sustained-release tablets. Treatment effect was observed after 20-day treatments. Result The recovery rate was 56.3% and total effective rate was 96.9% in the treatment group, versus 9.7% and 48.4% in the control group, and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant （P〈0.05）. Conclusion The outcome indicates that electroacupuncture at pattelofemoral joint is superior to oral administration of Diclofenac sodium sustained-release tablets in treating knee osteoarthritis with regard to the recovery rate and total effective rate.
