The term "bursectomy" can be divided into two component parts: "burse" and "ectomy." "Burse" refers to a bursa, which is a fluid-filled sac that reduces friction between tissues in the body. The suffix "ectomy" comes from the Greek word "ektomē," meaning "surgical removal." Therefore, bursectomy refers to the surgical removal of a bursa.
