Bursae is NOT found around blood vessels, it may be connected to synovial join cavity or separate from it.

They form where tendon or ligament rubs against other tissues, they may appear deep to the skin, covering a bone or lying within other connective tissueexposed to friction or pressure.

They aid in reducing friction and act as shock absorbers.

Bursae that develope in abnormal locations, or because of abnormal stresses are called adventitious bursae.
