The subacromial subdeltoid bursa is a small fluid-filled sac located between the acromion (part of the shoulder blade) and the deltoid muscle. Its role is to reduce friction and provide cushioning between these structures, allowing smooth movement of the shoulder joint.
The subscapular bursa does not belong to the glenohumeral joint. It is located between the subscapularis tendon and the neck of the scapula, within the shoulder joint but not directly associated with the glenohumeral joint.
Bursitis is a condition in which there is an inflammation of the bursa, which is a sac that is located between muscles or tendons of the shoulder. A cause of shoulder bursitis can be overuse of the shoulder joint. This condition can cause pain.
Bursa are found in various joints throughout the body, particularly in areas where friction occurs between bones, tendons, and muscles. Notable joints that contain bursa include the shoulder (subacromial bursa), elbow (olecranon bursa), hip (iliopsoas bursa), and knee (prepatellar and suprapatellar bursae). These fluid-filled sacs help reduce friction and cushion the joints during movement.
A pseudo bursa is a collection of fluid that forms adjacent to a joint as a result of chronic inflammation or injury, rather than being an actual bursa. It can mimic the appearance and symptoms of a true bursa but lacks a synovial lining and is not anatomically a bursa.
They are called as bursae. They reduce the friction of the muscle tendons.

The subacromial bursa is both the most important bursa in the shoulder joint for reducing friction and the most commonly injured. Inflammation of this bursa, known as subacromial bursitis, can cause pain and restricted motion in the shoulder.

Yes, surgery can help with subacromial bursa effusion, particularly if conservative treatments such as rest, physical therapy, and corticosteroid injections are ineffective. Surgical options may include arthroscopy to remove the inflamed bursa or to address underlying issues like impingement. The decision to proceed with surgery typically depends on the severity of symptoms and the impact on daily activities. Consultation with an orthopedic specialist is essential to determine the best approach.
The subacromial and subcoracoid bursa are spaces composed of synovium membrane (which generally lines the inside of joint capsules) and synovial fluid a fluid which is found in joint and bursa and is designed to be as frictionless as possible. The subacromial bursa is located above the shoulder joint between the supraspinatus muscle and below the acromiom which comes off the spine of the scapula and may be palpated as the bony apex of the shoulder. This bursa does not communicate with the shoulder joint proper. This is not the case if there is underlying pathology however. The subcoracoid bursa is also called the subscapular bursa. It is in fact a medial continuation of the shoulder joint. In other words it is part of the shoulder joint cavity and sits underneath the coracoid process. The coracoid process is also part of the scapula and can be palpated beneath the lateral (outer part) of the clavicle.
An impingement or a secondary sign of a rotator cuff tear in the shoulder area. Subacromial bursal indicates the sign of fluid around the joint area. The Bursa can also become inflamed. The fluid retention and inflamation can cause Rotator Cuff disease.
Bursa was created in -202.
The population of Bursa is 1,905,570.
Bursitis is inflammation of a bursa; bursectomy is removal of a bursa.
