For patients with bursitis, the treatment modality of choice was conservative treatment, and those who did not experience symptom relief usually received surgery. However, we have been able to treat a patient with chronic proliferative subdeltoid bursitis through alcohol instillation. The patient complained of aggravating right shoulder area pain particularly on abduction or flexion of his arm. Ultrasonographic examination revealed that there was notable synovial thickening, fluid collection and proliferative pannus in the subdeltoid bursa. Steroid was injected for treatment but after 9 days, synovial proliferation and synovial fluid collection remained unchanged. After additional 7 days, 70% isopropyl alcohol 5 ml was injected into the subdeltoid bursa via ultrasonograph-guided injection, followed by normal saline 10 ml injection to dilute the previously injected alcohol in order to re-aspirate. On the following check-up 3 weeks after, decrease in synovial proliferation along with normal ultrasonographic results other than slightly thickened bursa wall was noted.

Objective
To evaluate the accuracy of ultrasound guided hip trochanteric bursa (subgluteus maximus bursa) injection by using pelvis computed tomography (CT) scan with contrast dye. Method: Nine patients (37∼79 years old) with greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) were recruited for the study. In lateral decubitus position with pain side up, ultrasound guided injection was done into trochanteric bursa located between gluteus maximus and medius tendons with a mixture of 10 ml 0.5% lidocaine and 10 ml contrast dye (Omnipaque) in all study subjects. Accuracy of injection was assessed by pelvis CT scan within 1 hour after bursa injection. Results: As results of pelvis CT scan, all subjects' contrast dyes were accurately injected within trochanteric bursa space from trochanter to proximal gluteus. Conclusion: We confirmed that ultrasound guided trochanteric bursa injection was accurate and easy to perform. (J Korean Acad Rehab Med 2009; 33: 591-594)

Objective
To investigate clinical and ultrasonographic findings of Morton's neuroma with or without interdigital bursitis. Method: Eighty patients who were diagnosed as Morton's neuroma were included. The diagnostic criterion of Morton's neuroma at ultrasonography was hypoechoic mass was 5 mm in sagittal view. When the hypoechoic mass was molded by compression of the probe, Morton's neuroma accompanied with interdigital bursitis was diagnosed. The mean difference of symptom duration from onset to the hospital visit and the size of Morton's neuroma was evaluated. Results: In eigthy patients, total 117 feet, 210 Morton's neuromas were detected. Of the 117 feet, 66% revealed more than one Morton's neuroma per one foot. Mostly Morton's neuroma was at the second (46.7%) and the third interdigital space (43.8%). Mean duration was 19.1±16.9 months. Comorbidity of interdigital bursitis was 23.3% of all Morton's neuroma. Mean size of Morton's neuroma with interdigital bursitis was significantly larger (10.3±3.0 mm) than single neuroma (8.5±2.5 mm). The symptom duration from onset to the hospital visit was significantly shorter in neuroma with interdigital bursitis (14.1±16.8 months) than single Morton's neuroma (21.2±16.6 months). Conclusion: Morton's neuroma had multiple propensity, mostly at the second and the third web space with comparable rate. Comorbidity of interdigital bursitis with Morton's neuroma was 23.3%. When interdigital bursitis was accompanied, the size of hypoechoic mass was larger and symptom duration from onset to the hospital visit was shorter than single Morton's neuroma.

The obturator externus bursa has been described as a potential bursa between the tendon of the obturator externus muscle and the posterior hip capsule. Although pathologic involvement of the iliopsoas bursa by intraarticualr hip disease has been extensively described, obturator externus bursa has not been fully investigated. We describe a patient who presented with hip pain and limited range of motion. Her magnetic resonance imaging of pelvis revealed an enhancing cystic lesion that extends inferomedially displacing obturator externus muscle and mild synovitis of the right hip. She was diagnosed as having obturator externus bursitis, and after symptomatic treatment pain and limited range of motion disappeared. The obturator externus bursa is a potential communication of the hip joint, can be a site of disease spread from the hip joint, and can be identified with magnetic resonance imaging.
