  • Title: [Multiple calcifications and ossifications of tendons].
    Author: Gaucher A, Péré P, Gillet P.
    Journal: Rev Prat; 1991 Jun 21; 41(18):1637-43. PubMed ID: 1907021.
    Abstract:
    Multiple calcifications and ossifications of tendons are, as a rule, associated with similar lesions of other articular and/or periarticular structures. The nature and multiplicity of these lesions gives them an unquestionable diagnostic and nosological value. Multiple calcifications are part of the apatite arthritis or of diffuse articular chondrocalcinosis. Multiple ossifications of tendons often suggest Forestier's disease and ankylosing spondylitis.
