  • Title: Acute calcific periarthritis of proximal interphalangeal joint in a professional golfer 's hand.
    Author: Lee KB, Song KJ, Kwak HS, Lee SY.
    Journal: J Korean Med Sci; 2004 Dec; 19(6):904-6. PubMed ID: 15608408.
    Abstract:
    This report describes a 22-yr-old professional golfer with acute calcific periarthritis of the proximal interphalangeal joint of the 4th finger. We considered that the major cause for this condition may be the repeated minor traumas to the affected site. Also, since this condition is self-limiting, a correct diagnosis is required to avoid unnecessary tests and surgery.
