Olecranon Bursa Aspiration

Olecranon Bursa Aspiration

In its normal state, the olecranon bursa is a small fluid-filled subcutaneous sac which overlies the olecranon process in the elbow. Olecranon bursa swelling can occur in both genders and is usually seen in adults, but can be seen in adolescents. It may be related to trauma or an underlying medical condition. Olecranon bursa evaluation and aspiration is important for accurate diagnosis and management of the cause of the olecranon bursa swelling and pain.
