Abstract:
Tendon calcification,a common clinical disease,is often complicated after tendon injury or surgery,or as a special manifestation of tendinopathy.It is also one manifestation of acquired heterotopic ossification.However,there are no preventive measures for tendon calcification in clinical treatment as its pathogenesis is still unclear.In addition,the domestic orthopedic surgeons have paid little attention to this issue yet.To enhance understanding of tendon calcification,we have summarized the relevant literature published in recent years.
