Overview
Surgical intervention is not recommended for the management of bursitis. However, surgical techniques include bursectomy or longitudinal band release are usually reserved for patients with chronic, recurrent, or septic bursitis.[1]
Surgery
Bursectomy
Surgical intervention is not recommended for the management of bursitis. However, bursectomy may be usually reserved for patients with chronic, recurrent, or septic bursitis.[1]
- Indications for surgical intervention (open incision/endoscopic bursectomy) in patients with bursitis include:
- Inability to drain the infected bursa effectively with needle aspiration
- Presence of a foreign body in superficial bursa
- Adjacent skin or soft tissue infection requiring debridement
- Critically ill patients who are immunocompromised
- Chronically infected and thickened bursa
- Sever refractory and recurrent bursitis
Longitudinal band release
Longitudinal iliotibial band (ITB) release alone and in combination with bursectomy, is a minimally invasive technique that may be result in a better outcome in refractory cases of trochanteric bursitis.[2]
