Abstract
Prepatellar bursitis has diverse aetiologies that range from acute trauma/infection, metabolic, crystal induced, to chronic occupational related causes. Our case reports a patient with cerebral palsy, who developed massive bilateral prepatellar haemorrhagic bursitis, refractory to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications. The pathophysiology of chronic prepatellar bursitis and the importance of ultrasound in the management of this patient’s massive effusion is discussed further in this report.
