This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Bursitis is a relatively common occurrence that may be caused by traumatic, inflammatory, or infectious processes. Septic bursitis most commonly affects the olecranon and prepatellar bursae. Staphylococcus aureus accounts for 80% of all septic bursitis, and most cases affect men and are associated with preceding trauma. We present a case of an 86-year-old female with an atypical septic bursitis involving the infrapatellar bursa. Not only are there very few reported cases of septic infrapatellar bursitis, but also this patient’s case is particularly unusual in that she is a female with no preceding trauma who had Pseudomonas aeruginosa on aspirate. The case also highlights the diagnostic workup of septic bursitis through imaging modalities and aspiration. This patient had full resolution of her septic bursitis with appropriate IV antibiotics. 1. Introduction and relative superficial location, the olecranon and prepa- tellar bursae are the most common sites of septic bursitis The human body contains upwards of 150 bursae, many [3, 4].

  • Anterior Knee Pain
    Page 1 of 4 Anterior Knee Pain Anterior knee pain is common with a variety of causes.[1] It is important to make a careful assessment of the underlying cause in order to ensure appropriate management and advice, Common causes [2] Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) PFPS is defined as pain behind or around the patella, caused by stress in the patellofemoral joint. PFPS is common. Symptoms are usually provoked by climbing stairs, squatting, and sitting with flexed knees for long periods of time.[3] PFPS seems to be multifactorial, resulting from a complex interaction between intrinsic anatomy and external training factors.[4] Pain and dysfunction often result from either abnormal forces or prolonged repetitive compressive or shearing forces between the patella and the femur. Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a common cause of knee pain in adolescents and young adults, especially among those who are physically active and regularly participate in sports. Although PFPS most often presents in adolescents and young adults, it can occur at any age. Over half of all cases are bilateral (but one side is often more affected than the other). The potential causes of PFPS remain controversial but include overuse, overloading and misuse of the patellofemoral joint. Underlying causes of PFPS include: Overuse of the knee - eg, in sporting activities. Minor problems in the alignment of the knee. Foot problems - eg, flat feet. Repeated minor injuries to the knee. Joint hypermobility affecting the knee. Reduced muscle strength in the leg. Physiotherapy and foot orthoses are often used in the management of PFPS.[5] Other common causes of anterior knee pain in adolescents These include: Osgood-Schlatter disease See the separate article on Osgood-Schlatter Disease.
