Trochanteric Bursa Removal

Effective Trochanteric Bursa Removal: Fast Pain Relief

Trochanteric Bursa Removal is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of the trochanteric bursa, a small fluid-filled sac located near the hip joint. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and involves making a small incision over the affected area. The surgeon then carefully removes the bursa, taking care not to damage any surrounding tissue or structures. Once the bursa has been removed, the incision is closed with sutures or staples, and the patient is typically required to wear a compression bandage or brace to help reduce swelling and promote healing. Trochanteric Bursa Removal is often recommended for patients who have experienced persistent pain or inflammation in the hip joint despite conservative treatments such as rest, ice, and physical therapy. The procedure is generally safe and effective, with most patients experiencing significant relief from their symptoms within a few weeks of surgery.
