Trochanteric bursectomy with iliotibial band release
It is an inflammation of a sac(bursae) that is normally present to lubricate the motion between the muscles on the outside(lateral) area of your hip and the underlying prominent bone(trochanter). Treated with stretching exercises of the muscles, steroid injections. Rarely does it require surgery . Iliotibial band release has been used for relief as well as excision of the bursa.
