AbstractIntroduction: Intermittent hydrarthrosis (IH) is characterized by periodic attacks of synovitis in large joints, most commonly the knee. No successful treatment has been documented to prevent or abort these attacks. Mobilization with movement (MWM) comprises manual therapy techniques used to improve pain and joint motion. This case report aimed to evaluate the effects of MWM techniques on knee pain, edema, and giving way in patients with IH. Case Presentation: A patient with IH underwent 10 sessions of MWM techniques. Knee pain, edema, and giving way were assessed before and after treatment. Following the intervention, knee pain, edema, and giving way improved. Conclusions: MWM techniques may be valuable for managing knee pain, edema, and episodes of giving way in patients with IH.en
