Definition of bursa in English English dictionary: Any of the many small fluid-filled sacs located at the point where a muscle or tendon slides across bone. These sacs serve to reduce friction between the two moving surfaces; formerly Brusa ancient Prusa City (pop., 1997: 1,066,559), northwestern Turkey. It was founded in the 3rd century BC, at the foot of the Mysian Mount Olympus near the southeastern shore of the Sea of Marmara, as the seat of the kings of Bithynia. It flourished under the Romans (see Roman Republic and Empire) and later under the Byzantine Empire. After Crusaders conquered Constantinople (modern Istanbul) in 1204, it was a seat of Byzantine resistance. The Ottoman Empire took it in the early 14th century and made it their first great capital.

Under the Republic of Turkey, it is a centre for agriculture and is noted for its carpets and many 15th-century mosques; A fluid-filled sac that is located in areas where friction is likely to occur, then minimizes the friction; for example between a tendon and bone Capsule - An enclosing structure which surrounds the joint and contains ligaments which stabilize that joint; Lateral circular extensions present at the posterior end of males of some nematodes; A fluid-filled sac They are found between tissue planes where shearing forces may act - e g at the knee and elbow They are lined by synovium and contain synovial fluid - like the joint Bursitis occurs when they are inflamed; a fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between moving tissues of the body Major bursae are located adjacent to the tendons near the large joints, such as the shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees; A pouch or sac; A fluid-filled sac that is located in areas where friction is\ likely to occur, then minimizes the friction; for example between a tendon and bone; A fibrous sac that contains fluid The bursa acts as a cushion that allows tendons to move smoothly over the bone; A small serous sac between a tendon and a bone; fluid-filled sac, usually located at areas of friction such as between a tendon and bone; {i} pouch; sac containing fluid between a tendon and a bone (Anatomy); A small sac of tissue located between bone and other moving structures such as muscles, skin, or tendons The bursa contains a lubricating fluid that allows smooth gliding between these structures; A sac of synovial fluid between tendons, muscles, & bones that promotes easier movement; a small fluid-filled sac located between movable parts of the body especially at joints; A fluid-containing sac near or involving a joint or bony prominence that reduces friction between a tendon and a bone, or between a bone and skin during movement; fluid-filled sac that allows smooth motion of muscles or tendons over a bone or joint; a city in northwestern Turkey; Greek = a purse, hence a flattened sac containing a film of fluid; A closed fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between tissues of the body The major bursae are located adjacent to the tendons near the large joints, such as the shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees; A bursa is a fluid filled sac that acts as a cushion between tendons, bones, and skin Like the joint, the bursa is lined by synovium and contains synovial fluid; a sac filled with fluid located between a bone and a tendon or muscle; The Bursa is a fluid filled sac that is located in and around the joints It is the lubricant that allows joints to move freely; A fluid-filled sac that is located in areas where friction is likely to occur, then minimizes the friction; for example between a tendon and a bone; (plural = bursae) - a fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between moving tissues of the body; major bursae are located adjacent to the tendons near the large joints, such as the shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees; Any sac or saclike cavity; especially, one of the synovial sacs, or small spaces, often lined with synovial membrane, interposed between tendons and bony prominences; A fluid filled sac, usually located at areas of friction e g between tendon and bone; a small fluid-filled sac located between movable parts of the body especially at joints a city in northwestern Turkey; — A bursa (burse, plural for bursa) is a closed fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between tissues of the body
