Abstract:
Two cases of massive calcification in dialysed patients are described with computerized tomography correlation: one in the abdominal/pelvic cavity, which is a rare location, and the other in the abdominal wall. The cause of these calcified deposits is multifactorial and complex. Usually painless, they may cause restriction of joint movement by virtue of their bulky size.
