Transient osteoporosis is an uncommon, self-limiting, reversible condition. We report a case involving the knee following trauma. The aetiology is unknown, but the association between transient osteoporosis and trauma has not been documented previously. The clinical presentation represents a degree of overlap among various clinical syndromes, including reflex sympathetic dystrophy and avascular necrosis. The diagnosis was confirmed by bone scan and MRI. The patient, a 47-year-old man, was treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication, protected weight-bearing and physiotherapy. He made a full clinical recovery and bone quality returned to virtual normality.
