1Department of Radiology, The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust, Stanmore, Middlesex, and The Institute of Orthopaedics and Musculoskeletal Sciences, University College London, HA7 4LP, UK.
Objective:
The shoulder is the most common location for calcific tendonitis. Presentation of calcific tendonitis at other sites is unusual and may lead to diagnostic difficulty.
Design And Patients:
We report a case of calcific tendonitis of the pectoralis major insertion and describe the CT and MRI findings.
Results And Conclusion:
The presence of an associated cortical defect at the site of tendon insertion may lead to the incorrect diagnosis of neoplastic process.
