Bone marrow edema occurs with an increase in age. Generally, bone marrow has three portions they are bony portion, fatty portion, blood cell production portion. At a young age, all three portions are present in general ratios. As the age increases the blood cell production portion decreases and the fatty portion increases these leads to bone marrow edema. The treatment options include rest, medications, steroid injections, or surgery. Surgery is recommended only when non-surgical interventions fail to provide any relief from the symptoms of BME. Surgery is preferred in conditions such as to repair the damaged ligament, pin fractures, and for removing tumors. Bone marrow edema is a term used to describe the build-up of fluid (edema) in the bone marrow. Bone marrow edema is a condition that can be identified on an ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan and is often associated with osteoarthritis, a fracture, or joint injury. Bone marrow edema in persons with osteoarthritis is associated with poor outcomes. When compared to people without edema, those with edema are likely to see their condition deteriorate quickly, often over the course of 15 to 30 months.
