Area of Science:

Orthopedics
Trauma Surgery

Background:

Prepatellar bursitis commonly causes anterior knee pain.
Traumatic hemorrhagic prepatellar bursitis is rare, especially when massive and bilateral.

Observation:

A patient presented with large bilateral knee swellings present for six years after a fall.
The swellings significantly impacted daily activities, including wearing trousers and using ladders.

Findings:

Surgical excision revealed thick-walled cysts containing organized hematoma (right knee) and thick brown fluid (left knee).
The cysts were well-demarcated and dissected with relative ease from surrounding tissues.

Implications:

This is the first reported case of chronic massive bilateral hemorrhagic prepatellar bursitis.
Surgical excision proved an effective treatment, with no recurrence over two years post-surgery.
