Abstract

Snapping syndrome rarely occurs at the knee joint. This is the first report of snapping pes syndrome after total knee arthroplasty. Surgeons should be aware of the presence of such a case and pay attention to the fact that snapping symptoms could be caused by a residual bony prominence and a change in alignment after total knee arthroplasty.
