Abstract:
A case of tumoral calcinosis simulating osteomyelitis and associated with bunion formation in a 20-year-old female is presented. The most striking findings in this patient were the soft tissue calcifications. There was no evidence of any of the known causes of heterotopic calcifications. This kind of simulation between tumoral calcinosis bunion formation and osteomyelitis has not been previously described.
