Excision Prepatellar Bursa Procedure

A prepatellar bursectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the prepatellar bursa, which is a fluid-filled sac located in the front of the knee. This procedure is recommended for patients who have prepatellar bursitis, which is inflammation of the bursa resulting from repeated trauma or infection. This surgical procedure is fairly simple because it does not require the surgical entry of the knee since the prepatellar bursa is located in the front.

¿Cuando es necesario este procedimiento?

This procedure becomes essential when conservative treatments fail to alleviate the symptoms associated with prepatellar bursitis. Prepatellar bursitis, an inflammation of the prepatellar bursa located at the front of the kneecap, typically occurs due to repetitive trauma or infection.

Non-surgical treatments like rest, ice therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, and physiotherapy are usually attempted first to manage this condition. However, if these therapies prove ineffective and patients continue to experience severe pain, swelling, limited range of motion or are unable to perform daily activities adequately even after a reasonable period of conservative therapy (around 3-6 months), then prepatellar bursectomy may be deemed medically necessary.

Qué esperar

Patients are under general anesthesia to ensure their comfort throughout the procedure. The surgeon will use specialized tools to remove or drain the affected bursa without disrupting the surrounding structures. After draining the bursa, the surgeon will ensure there are no infections around the area before closing the incision.

 

Following this surgery, it is crucial to focus on post-operative care and recovery to ensure optimal healing. Initially, patients may experience pain, swelling, and limited mobility in the affected knee. To manage these symptoms, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly administered along with ice therapy and elevation techniques. The recovery process requires strict adherence to physical therapy exercises aimed at restoring range of motion and strengthening surrounding muscles.
