Abstract:
We report a case of calcific bursitis of the shoulder in four-year-old boy who had severe pain and limitation of motion of the left shoulder joint for three days. Radiographs revealed the oval radiopaque lesion in the subacormial space, and the MR signal intensity of the mass was moderate on T2WI. Histological examination of the mass showed acute necrotizing inflammation with calcification.
