The optimal surgical approach for patients hospitalized for moderate to severe septic bursitis is not known, and there have been no randomized trials of a one-stage compared with a two-stage (i.e., bursectomy, followed by closure in a second procedure) approach.

All patients received postsurgical oral antibiotic therapy for 7 days. These are the final results of the prospective study registered at ClinicalTrials (NCT01406652).Aim
