Abstract
Knee pain is a common complaint in clinical practice, and pesanserinus bursitis has been frequently diagnosed based only on clinical features that may cause equivocal interpretations. Patients complain of characteristic spontaneous medial knee pain with tenderness in the infer medial aspect of the joint. Studies with different imaging modalities have been undertaken during the last years to identify whether these patients suffer from bursitis. High-resolution ultrasonographic (HRUS) scanning is accurate in the diagnosis of condition and differentiating other soft tissue lesions in and around the knee. It is relatively easy to perform, less expensive and acceptable to patients.
