Criteria
Trochanteric bursitis
Diagnostic criteria have been proposed for trochanteric bursitis, but their sensitivity, specificity, and predictive value have not been established.[5][12]
The criteria propose that lateral hip pain and tenderness around the greater trochanter must be present in combination with 1 of the following:
Pain at the extremes of rotation, abduction, or adduction
Pain of contraction of the hip abductors against resistance
Pseudoradiculopathy: pain radiating down the lateral aspect of the thigh.
