Increased uptake on (99m)Tc bone scintigraphy in a case of tumoral calcinosis in a child

Tumoral calcinosis is an idiopathic condition resulting in the periarticular deposition of calcium crystals and salts in soft tissues. It is rare in children, and even rarer in idiopathic form. We present a case of a 2-year-old female with tumoral calcinosis in the supraclavicular region, and, in pa...

description Tumoral calcinosis is an idiopathic condition resulting in the periarticular deposition of calcium crystals and salts in soft tissues. It is rare in children, and even rarer in idiopathic form. We present a case of a 2-year-old female with tumoral calcinosis in the supraclavicular region, and, in particular, focus on the pertinent radiological findings with radiography, MRI and bone scintigraphy.
