Abstract
Patellar tuberculosis (TB) is an uncommon occurrence and has been sparsely reported in the literature. Imaging plays a key role in its diagnosis, as clinical symptoms vary and are often unspecific. We present two cases of isolated patellar tuberculosis, its classical imaging features, and follow-up serial imaging.
