Abstract

We present four cases of subcutanea trochanterica bursitis (one involving both sides). The bursitis was acute and inflammatory in two cases, chronic and microtraumatic in one, asymptomatic in one and septic in the last case. The acutely inflamed bursa may contain a blood effusion increasing the pain. CT and MRI provide distinctive images for the diagnosis of these particular types of periarticular diseases.
