| septic bursitis | A bursa is a closed fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between tissues of the body. When the bursa becomes inflamed, the condition is known as bursitis. When the bursa is infected with bacteria, the condition is called septic bursitis. (12 Dec 1998) |

| septic bursitis. Bypass | An operation in which the surgeon creates a new pathway for the movement of substances in the body. (12 Dec 1998) |
| shoulder bursitis | A bursa is a fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between moving tissues of the body. There are two major bursae of the shoulder. Bursitis is usually not infectious, but the bursa can become infected. Treatment of non-infectious bursitis includes rest, ice, and medications for inflammation and pain. Infectious bursitis is treated with antibiotics, aspiration, and surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |

| intertubercular bursitis | Inflammation of the intertubercular bursa of the biceps brachii muscle of the shoulder of the horse, usually the result of trauma. Synonym: bicipital bursitis, shoulder bursitis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| elbow bursitis | at the tip of the elbow (the olecranon area), there is a bursa, a fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction with motion. This bursa is known as the olecranon bursa. Because of its location, the olecranon bursa is subject to trauma, ranging from simple repetitive weight bearing while leaning, to banging in a fall. This trauma can cause a common, aseptic form of bursitis (olecranon bursitis) with varying degrees of swelling, warmth, tenderness and redness in the area overlying the point of the elbow. (12 Dec 1998) |
| elbow bursitis, treatment of | If non-infectious, elbow bursitis treatment includes rest, ice, and medications for inflammation and pain. Infectious bursitis is treated with antibiotics, aspiration, and surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| trochanteric bursitis | Inflammation of one of the trochanteric bursae of the horse, and a common cause of hip lameness. (05 Mar 2000) |
| knee bursitis | A bursa is a fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between moving tissues of the body. There are three major bursae of the knee. Bursitis is usually not infectious, but the bursa can become infected. Treatment of non-infectious bursitis includes rest, ice, and medications for inflammation and pain. Infectious bursitis is treated with antibiotics, aspiration, and surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |

Synonym: arteria tibialis anterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior tibial bursa | <anatomy> The small bursa between the medial surface of the medial cuneiform bone and the tendon of the tibialis anterior. Synonym: bursa subtendinea musculi tibialis anterioris, anterior tibial bursa. (05 Mar 2000) |
