Abstract

In the context of a particular case report, the authors recall that calcified discs may be responsible for root pain, hyperalgic sciatica or lumbago. In the present case, the pain responded to intra-discal injection of long-acting corticosteroids. The authors compare this case to 10 other personal cases and 16 cases reported in the literature.

Calcific myonecrosis and tenosynovitis: sonographic findings with correlative imaging.

We report the sonographic appearance of a case of calcific myonecrosis and tenosynovitis with correlative plain radiography and CT findings. Calcific myonecrosis is a rare complication of previous trauma that presents as a tumor-like calcified mass years after an initial injury, most commonly affecting the anterior compartment of the lower leg. Although the clinical, radiographic, and MRI features of calcific myonecrosis have been well described, to our knowledge the sonographic appearance has not been reported previously in the literature.
