Articular capsule of the knee joint the suprapatellar bursa is seemingly redundant. It is however also referred to as the "suprapatellar synovial recess" as it gradually unfolds as the knee is flexed; to open up completely when the knee is flexed 130 degrees. The suprapatellar bursa is prevented from being pinched during extension by the articularis genus muscle. On the tibia, the anterior reflection and attachment of the synovial membrane is located near the cartilage. Anteriorly, the infrapatellar fat pad is inserted below the patella and between the two membranes. It extends from the lower margin of the patella above, to the infrapatellar synovial fold below.
