Intratendinous olecranon bursa
Bursa intratendinea olecrani
Definition
The intratendinous olecranon bursa is a small, inconstant synovial bursa located within the tendon of the triceps brachii, near its insertion on the olecranon process of the ulna. It serves to reduce friction and distribute stress within the triceps tendon during forceful elbow extension, minimizing wear at its insertion on the olecranon.
