Lateral malleolar bursitis of the ankle is a commonly encountered disease in the department of orthopedic surgery. Although most cases of lateral malleolar bursitis are managed by conservative treatments, operative treatment is considered in cases of infected bursitis or complication after surgery. There are several potential complications associated with operative treatment, including wound healing problem, skin necrosis, nerve injury, or recurrence. However, synovial fistula of the ankle as a complication after surgery for lateral malleolar bursitis has not been previously reported. The author experienced the complication of synovial fistula after surgery for lateral malleolar bursitis and obtained a satisfactory result in revision surgery for the complication, which was coverage of the fistular formation with a periosteal flap from the distal fibula.

Olecranon bursitis rarely Progresses to septic arthritis. In our case, the 24 year old woman was visited due to progressing right elbow pain, despite antibiotic treatment of chronic olecranon bursitis caused by elbow laceration 2 months ago. Pus draining sinus, localized heating and swelling could be seen on physical examination. Septic arthritis and pathologic fracture was diagnosed under arthroscopic examination. Arthroscopic irrigation and synovectomy for elbow joint, olecranon bursectomy and curettage of olecranon bone was done. In the operation field, the elbow and draining sinus over olecranon was communicated each other on saline irrigation test. The patient was treated for 3 weeks with intravenous antibiotics. At postoperative 4 weeks, bone graft was done. The possibility of chronic osteomyelitis and septic arthritis must be considered in a patient with chronic olecranon bursitis.

Pain on the soft palate and pharynx can originate in several associated structures. Therefore, diagnosis of patients who complain of discomfort in these areas may be difficult and complicated. Pterygoid hamulus bursitis is a rare disease showing various symptoms in the palatal and pharyngeal regions. As such, it can be one of the reported causes of pain in these areas. Treatment of hamular bursitis is either conservative or surgical. If the etiologic factor of bursitis is osteophytic formation on the hamulus or hypertrophy of the bursa, resection of the hamulus is usually the preferred surgical treatment. We report on a case of bursitis that was managed successfully by surgical treatment and a review of the literature.

Objectives : This study details on a case of acupotomy for relapsed lateral malleolar bursitis. Methods : A 71-year-old woman with lateral malleolar bursitis was treated with acupotomy twice in an outpatient setting. A sterilized, disposable, blade width 0.5 mm × needle length 50 mm sized acupotomy was administered on GB40 and BL62 on each visit. Pain intensity assessment using Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) and the response evaluation criteria was conducted right after each treatment. Results : Pain on NRS declined from 5 to less than 1 after twice of acupotomy treatment. This result was regarded as 'Complete Response' using the response evaluation criteria. There were no side effects during whole treatment procedure at all. Conclusions : It is turned out that acupotomy can have a positive clinical effect on lateral malleolar bursitis in this case without any adverse effect. Further controlled studies on acupotomy for lateral malleolar bursitis are required for clinical application.

In infrapatellar bursitis, an acute or chronic inflammation of the infrapatellar bursa causes pain and swelling at the front of the knee. To date, only a few studies have reported cases of infrapatellar bursitis that are treated using Korean medicine. The aim of the present study is to report a case of a 27-year-old male with front knee pain caused by infrapatellar bursitis that was treated with integrated Korean medicine treatments (e.g., acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, herbal medicine). The patient-reported numeric rating scale confirmed that the patient's pain was relieved, while the physical function tests also indicated a significant improvement. Based on the findings of this study, it can be suggested that integrated Korean medicine treatments could be an effective therapeutic option for patients diagnosed with infrapatellar bursitis.

We are reporting about a case of a rheumatoid nodule, beneath the ischial tuberosity, mimicking ischiogluteal bursitis. Rheumatoid nodules are frequently seen, at the subcutaneous soft tissues of repetitive mechanical irritation points, and prominent bones. There have been no reported cases of rheumatoid nodules, extending just beneath the ischial tuberosity bone. A 68-year-old woman with a seven-year history of rheumatoid arthritis, suffered for six months, from right buttock swelling and discomfort in seating. A cystic lesion postero-inferior to the ischial tuberosity, was noted in the MRI scan, which was thought to be ischiogluteal bursitis, because of its characteristic location and appearance. Histopathologic analysis and gross findings on the operation, revealed no evidence of bursitis.

Lateral malleolar bursitis rarely progresses to septic arthritis. In our case, the 27 year old man visited due to progressive left ankle pain, despite the antibiotics treatment of lateral malleolar bursitis. 8 years ago, modified Brostrom procedure was performed owing to chronic ankle instability. Previous surgery altered anatomical structure of lateral ankle bursa, so it may cause the infection to spread to the ankle joint. We reported rare case of secondary septic arthritis caused by lateral malleolar bursitis.
