Abstract
|
|
|
|
Calcific supraspinatus tendinitis is extremely rare in children. We report a case of a 7-year-old girl with painful calcific supraspinatus tendinitis of the right shoulder. The child was treated with arthroscopic surgery. After surgery, she made a full recovery. The radiographs taken six month after surgery showed no recurrence of the calcification. Physicians should be aware that unspecific shoulder pain in children can be caused by calcific supraspinatus tendinitis.
