Abstract

Calcific tendinitis of hand and foot is rare and frequently misdiagnosed because of its rare incidence and its similar clinical presentation to other conditions such as infection. Awareness of the typical location as well as familiarity with the imaging findings is essential for making a correct diagnosis of this rare condition. We report four cases of calcific tendinitis of hand and foot, occurring in the flexor hallucis brevis, abductor digiti minimi, and abductor pollicis brevis.

손과 발의 석회화 건염은 드문 질환으로, 임상 양상이 감염 등의 다른 질환과 유사하기 때문에 흔히 오진할 수 있다. 병변의 특징적 위치와 영상 소견을 잘 이해하는 것이 병의 정확한 진단에 중요하다, 저자들은 단족무지굴근, 소지외전근, 그리고 단무지외전근에 생긴 4예의 석회화 건염을 보고한다.
