    Author: Halla JT, Schumacher HR, Trotter ME.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1985 Apr; 12(2):359-64. PubMed ID: 4032409.
    Abstract:
    Bursal swelling with inflammatory lipid laden creamy appearing bursal fluid is described in an alcoholic patient with pancreatitis. Joints swollen at the same time had clearer effusions. Morphologic and biochemical studies support the necrotic bursal membrane as the source for the synovial fluid lipids.
