Subacromial bursitis is a condition caused by inflammation of the bursa that separates the superior surface of the supraspinatus tendon (one of the four tendons of the rotator cuff) from the overlying coraco-acromial ligament, acromion, and coracoid (the acromial arch) and from the deep surface of the deltoid muscle.

The subacromial bursa is the synovial cavity located just below the acromion, ... with long-lasting inflammation leading to degeneration and fibrosis. ...
Shoulder impingement syndrome is a syndrome involving tendonitis (inflammation of tendons) of the rotator cuff muscles as they pass through the subacromial space, the passage beneath the acromion. It is particularly associated with tendonitis of the supraspinatus muscle. [1] This can result in pain, weakness, and loss of movement at the ...
Bursitis is commonly caused by repetitive movement and excessive pressure. Shoulders, elbows and knees are the most commonly affected. Inflammation of the bursae may also be caused by other inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, systemic lupus erythematosus, and gout.
The most common bursa for calcific bursitis to occur is the subacromial bursa. A bursa is a small, fluid-filled sac that reduces friction, and facilitates movements between its adjacent tissues (i.e., between tendon and bone, two muscles or skin and bone). Inflammation of the bursae is called bursitis.
Upon analysis, Patti and his team found that the body’s liver converts fructose into a type of lipid called lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs), which are associated with inflammation.
(For example, the drink contains sugar substitute sucralose, which the WHO warned could be linked with systemic inflammation and metabolic diseases, according to a review in Life.)
Subacromial bursitis is a painful condition caused by inflammation which often presents a set of symptoms known as subacromial impingement. Arthrography of shoulder joint (with or without computed tomography ) is performed by injecting contrast below and lateral to the coracoid process to outline the shoulder joint.
