|

a fibrous sac that acts like a cushion to ease movement in areas of friction (ex: within the shoulder )
|
|
|
combining form for Bursa |
burs/o * more then one bursa is bursae |
|
|

Synovial membrane |
|
|
what does the synovial membrane do |
secretes synovial fluid wich acts as a lubricant to make joint movement smooth |
