Transient osteoporosis or transient bone marrow edema is an uncommon self-limiting condition of unknown etiology. The most commonly affected joint is the hip, followed by the knee, ankle, and the foot. Simultaneous involvement of both hips has been reported exclusively in pregnant women. Bilateral knee involvement during pregnancy seems to be extremely rare. We present a case of bilateral transient bone marrow knee edema during pregnancy with complete resolution of symptoms and radiological findings after 10 months.
