  Prepatellar bursitis
#1

    A child of 5 years old with complains of periodic knee pain that appeared several days ago, which occurs when touching the front surface of the knee and while walking pain which does not limit mobility in the knee joint.

    Consulted by a surgeon and orthopedic surgeon, directed to an ultrasound scan with suspected inflammatory process of the corresponding knee.

    Upon visual inspection, both knees on the front surface, the patient is more likely to have thickened rough-skin as a skin corn.

    The child does not notice a pronounced pain when touching the zone of interest.

    At ultrasound scan visualised an asymmetry of skin thickness and subcutaneus fat: right(affected side) > left, marked heterogeneity of the skin/subcutaneus fat echo-structure on the right, increased blood flow by venous type at spectral doppler.

    PS. files 1-3 right knee, file 4 - left knee.

    A 14-year-old female teenager who returned from a long hike, with complaints of a dense, painful while walking, mass in the front surface of the right knee came to the ED of the Children's City Clinical Hospital and was urgently sent for an ultrasound scan.

    On ultrasound, no mass was found, in the projection of complaints, a slightly thickened, pronounced heterogeneous, increased echogenicity subcutaneous fatty tissue along the anterior surface of the right knee (prepatellar bursa, prepatellaris subcutanea) is visualized.
