Title: Tumoral calcinosis and atypical juvenile dermatomyositis: case report. Author: Liniger P, Slongo T, Eckhardt O. Journal: Eur J Pediatr Surg; 1998 Dec; 8(6):382-4. PubMed ID: 9926314. Abstract: Tumoral calcinosis is a rare, benign calcification of soft tissues in periarticular areas. It can manifest as an isolated disease or as part of an underlying disorder.

Finally, we discuss operative and non-operative treatment strategies of tumoral calcinosis in children and adults.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
