    Abstract:
    The soft tissue uptake of 99mTc-hydroxymethylene diphosphonate (99mTc-HMDP) due to subcutaneous injections of heparin calcium is reported in two patients with osteosarcoma. This uptake occurs in an unusual site, i.e. the shoulders and the anterior and posterior compartments of the upper arms.
