One of the risk factors known is low levels of vitamin D. This study aims to describe the profile of vitamin D serum levels, especially in elderly women with knee osteoarthritis in South Tangerang City, in 2020. 

Method: This study used a cross-sectional design from the secondary dataof female patients aged over 60 years who had been diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis with a total sample of 110. The sample was selected using consecutive sampling and analyzed using univariate analysis. 

Results: This study found that 80% of the elderly with knee osteoarthritis have low level vitamin D serum, with 63% had insufficient level, and 17% were deficient.
