Abstract :

Pre-patellar bursitis is one of the common bursitis among all bursa affection. But massive Pre-patellar bursa is seen in patients who have repeated trauma to knee for long duration like patients ambulating on knees in post polio residual paralysis or cerebral diplegia and very few cases have been reported. Hence we report a case of 25 yr male patient with post polio residual paralysis presented who presented with massive pre-patellar bursitis. Bursa was excised along with the redundant skin leaving the anterior wall intact & scarification was done.
