Bursolith... burs/o for the combining form of bursa and lithos (minus the "os" of course) being the root word for stone. It's in my medical dictionary and the exact definition is "a calculus formed in a bursa."

Hope that helps.

Sorry and dont remember anything like that neither, but maybe I can help you by analizing in what part of the body you can get stones, basically in the gall bladder and in the kidney and ureters. Between these posibilities the most likely to be a "bursa" is the gallbladder, so I would guess these meaning of the term. Please make sense of it by putting in the context of the rest of the information
