The subcoracoid bursa or subcoracoid bursa of Collas is a synovial bursa located in the shoulder. It is located anterior to the subscapularis muscle and inferior to the coracoid process . Its function is to reduce friction between the coracobrachialis , subscapularis and short head of the biceps tendons , thus facilitating internal and external ...
A bursa (which communicates with the cavity of the shoulder joint [1] [2] via an aperture in the joint capsule [2]) intervenes between the tendon and a bare area at the lateral angle of the scapula [1] /the neck of the scapula. [2] The subscapularis (supraserratus) bursa separates the subscapularis is from the serratus anterior. [2]
The coracobrachial bursa is between the subscapularis muscle and the tendon of the coracobrachialis muscle. Between the capsule and the tendon of the subscapularis muscle is the subscapular bursa, this is also known as the subtendinous bursa of the scapularis. The supra-acromial bursa does not normally communicate with the shoulder joint.
The SSB bursa is located deep to the deltoid muscle and the coracoacromial arch and extends laterally beyond the humeral attachment of the rotator cuff, anteriorly to overlie the intertubercular groove, medially to the acromioclavicular joint, and posteriorly over the rotator cuff.
The supra-acromial bursa is located on the superior aspect of the acromion and normally does not communicate with the glenohumeral joint. [1] Supra-acromial bursitis has not been receiving much attention from literature and remains described mainly as case reports of presumptive diagnosis with no histopathological correlation. [ 2 ]
The most significant impact of magnetic resonance neurography is on the evaluation of the large proximal nerve elements such as the brachial plexus (the nerves between the cervical spine and the underarm that innervate shoulder, arm and hand), [9] the lumbosacral plexus (nerves between the lumbosacral spine and legs), the sciatic nerve in the pelvis, [10] as well as other nerves such as the ...
Hip bursitis is when bursae (those protective fluid-filled sacs) become inflamed. It’s often caused by an overuse injury. The main symptom of this condition is hip pain that often extends to the ...
Calcific bursitis refers to calcium deposits within the bursae. This most occurs in the shoulder area. 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 ...
