Abstract
|
|
|
|
The most common anatomic location of calcific tendinitis is the suprasupinatus muscle of the shoulder joint. However, it is known to develop in any joint including the hip, knee. Infarction of skeletal muscle in the distal areas of the limbs due to vascular occlusion is a well recognized systemic condition in patients who have diabetes. The author experienced mass-like lesion combined muscle infarction and calcification within pure semitendinosus tendon without diabetes in posterosuperior area of distal thigh in old age.
