Popis: |
Tumoral calcinosis is a rare and benign hereditary tumor-like periarticular calcium deposit. It is painless and it is found commonly around large joints such as hip, shoulder and elbow. The condition predominately affects young black African patients with an equal gender ratio. In this report, a case of primary idiopathic localized tumoral calcinosis in a 22-year-old African man and its distinctive radiographic “chicken wire” pattern was described. |
