abnormalities 1<br />

• Trochanteric bursitis: rare<br />

– Not actually inflamed 2<br />

Trochanteric Bursal Fluid:<br />

• Bursal fluid not normally seen<br />

• Fluid distention:<br />

– simple fluid: anechoic<br />

– complicated fluid: mixed echogenicity<br />

– Not associated with pain 3 1 Eur Rad 2007; 17:1772.<br />

• Tendinosis: hypoechoic, no defects<br />

• Complete tear: discontinuous <strong>tendon</strong><br />

• >2 mm cortical irregularity is associated with<br />

<strong>tendon</strong> tear<br />

Potential Treatment Algorithm:<br />

• If bursa: aspirate, inject steroids<br />

• If tendinosis:<br />

– Tenotomy or fenestration<br />

– Inject steroids superficial to <strong>tendon</strong><br />

• 72% of patients significantly improved 1<br />

• If <strong>tendon</strong> tear: platelet-rich plasma injection<br />
