Abstract

Olecranon bursa endoscopy (bursoscopy) is a minimally invasive technique for resection of olecranon bursitis and spurs. The principal advantages are minimal operative site morbidity, excellent visualization secondary to endoscopic magnification, and early return to function. Dry endoscopy is performed with the hooded endoscope to keep the operating space patent, allowing illumination while also eliminating potential issues with wet endoscopy like postoperative soft tissue edema, sinus formation, and swelling.
