			*There is currently no consensus on the optimal diagnosis strategy for prepatellar bursitis. The majority of patients studied did receive an aspiration of fluid (82%), but those patients had a significantly higher rate of complications (persistent infection, secondary infection in initially aseptic bursae) than patients treated with antibiotics alone.<ref>Baumbach SF et al.
