Features: Bursitis, a common and frequent clinical condition among various orthopedic soft tissue diseases, involves tissues such as tendons, muscles associated with these tendons or muscles, and their sheaths (tendons or fascia). It also includes a series of soft tissue structures that support tendon stability and assist in coordinating movement range. When tendons, muscles, or coordinating tissues suffer congenital, acquired, traumatic, or pathological damage or abnormalities, they can cause varying degrees of harmful effects on tendons and other tissues, leading to limb movement disorders. These pathological effects often do not occur at a single point but frequently involve associated supportive tissues that aid in tendon movement. This book provides a detailed discussion of the mechanisms, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and treatment of various bursitis conditions. It is richly illustrated, well-organized, and highly practical, making it an invaluable reference for orthopedic physicians and medical interns.
