Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Greater trochanteric bursitis is often caused by repetitive stress or overuse injuries, such as running on banked surfaces (C), leg-length discrepancy (B), or direct force to the trochanteric bursa (D). A decreased Q angle, however, is not typically associated with causing greater trochanteric bursitis. The Q angle is the angle formed by a line drawn from the anterior superior iliac spine to the center of the patella and a second line drawn from the center of the patella to the tibial tubercle. It is related to knee biomechanics rather than hip bursitis.
