Common symptoms of the musculoskeletal system may occur as a rare presentation of an underlying malignancy. We describe a case of bronchogenic adenocarcinoma presenting as bilateral knee pain with arthritis due to bilateral metastases to the patellae. We also review the literature of patellar metastases.
