　The bursae of the knee are the fluid sacs and synovial pockets that surround and sometimes communicate with the joint cavity. Thin-walled and filled with synovial fluid, they represent the weak point of the joint, but also produce enlargements to the joint space.[1] They can be grouped into either communicating and non-communicating bursae or, as below, after location.

【 Frontal 】

1	the suprapatellar bursa (膝蓋骨上滑液包/膝蓋上包)
	between the anterior surface of the lower part of the femur and the deep surface of the quadriceps femoris.[2] It allows for movement of the quadriceps tendon over the distal end of the femur.
2	the prepatellar bursa　(膝蓋前滑液包/膝蓋前皮下包)
	between the patella and the skin, results in "housemaid's knee" when inflamed.[2] It allows movement of the skin over the underlying patella.
3	the deep infrapatellar bursa　(深膝蓋下包)
	between the upper part of the tibia and the patellar ligament.[2] It allows for movement of the patellar ligament over the tibia.
4	the subcutaneous [or superficial] infrapatellar bursa（膝蓋前皮下包）
	between the patellar ligament and skin.
5	the pretibial bursa
	between the tibial tuberosity and the skin.[2] It allows for movement of the skin over the tibial tuberosity.

 

【 Lateral 】

1	the lateral gastrocnemius [subtendinous] bursa
	between the lateral head of the gastrocnemius and the joint capsule
2	the fibular bursa
	between the lateral (fibular) collateral ligament and the tendon of the biceps femoris
3	the fibulopopliteal bursa
	between the fibular collateral ligament and the tendon of the popliteus
4	the subpopliteal recess (or bursa)
	between the tendon of the popliteus and the lateral condyle of the femur

 

【 Medial 】

1	the medial gastrocnemius [subtendinous] bursa
	between the medial head of the gastrocnemius and the joint capsule[2]
2	the anserine bursa
	between the medial (tibial) collateral ligament and the tendons of the sartorius, gracilis, and semitendinosus (i.e. the pes anserinus)
3	the bursa semimembranosa
	between the medial collateral ligament and the tendon of the semimembranosus
4
	there is one between the tendon of the semimembranosus and the head of the tibia
5
	occasionally there is a bursa between the tendons of the semimembranosus and semitendinosus
