Tumoral calcinosis is a condition characterized by deposition of calcium salts in the skin and subcutaneous tissue, commonly found around the joints. However, tumoral calcinosis of the auricle is extremely rare. We present the case of a 13-year-old boy with tumoral calcinosis of the helix of the ear auricle. A 13-year-old boy presented with a 10-year history of an enlarging mass on the left auricle. The mass was hard, non-tender, and non-compressible. The patient had no history of trauma. Complete surgical excision and pathological examination of the specimen was performed. The final diagnosis of the excised mass was tumoral calcinosis. After 9 months of follow-up, there were no signs of recurrence of the tumor and the patient was satisfied with the surgical results. Tumoral calcinosis of the auricle is extremely rare and may be misdiagnosed as other tumors. Pathological examination is essential for definitive diagnosis and complete surgical excision should be considered as the treatment of choice.

Tumoral calcinosis is a rare disease characterized by massive subcutaneous soft tissue deposits of calcium phosphate around large joints in patients with chronic kidney disease. Invasion of bone by tumoral calcinosis is rare. We experienced a case involving a femoral neck pathologic fracture due to bony invasion of tumoral calcinosis in a 46-year-old female with chronic kidney disease who had been on dialysis for 15 years. Successful outcomes were obtained by performance of total hip arthroplasty for treatment of the pathologic fracture of the femoral neck. Careful precaution is necessary to prevent pathologic fractures in patients with tumoral calcinosis around the hip joint.

Tumoral calcinosis is rarely encountered disease, and most of reported cases involved large joints such as hip or elbow. We report two patients with tumoral calcinosis in the foot. In the 1st case, the lesion was observed at the 1st MP joint of foot, and in the 2nd case it was found at the DIP joint of 5th toe area with bony erosion which is rare in other tumoral calcinosis. They all needed evaluation with MRI, and eventually surgical excision.

Tumoral calcinosis (TC) is a condition resulting from extensive calcium phosphate precipitation, primarily in the periarticular tissues around major joints. Calciphylaxis is a fatal ischemic vasculopathy mainly affecting dermal blood vessels and subcutaneous fat. This syndrome is rare and predominantly occurs in patients with end-stage renal disease. Here, we report on a rare case involving a patient with TC complicated with calciphylaxis. Our patient was a 31-year-old man undergoing hemodialysis who presented with masses on both shoulders and necrotic cutaneous ulcers, which were associated with secondary hyperparathyroidism, on his lower legs. He underwent subtotal parathyroidectomy, and sodium thiosulfate (STS) was administered for 27 weeks. Twenty months after beginning the STS treatment course, he experienced dramatic relief of his TC and calciphylaxis.

Extensive tumoral calcinosis affecting a large joint is uncommon in patients with systemic sclerosis. We report the case of a 52-year-old female patient referred for a growing calcified mass in the shoulder. She was diagnosed with interstitial lung disease and progressive systemic sclerosis. Although the pain and disability associated with the affected joint was not severe, the patient underwent surgical excision because the mass continued to grow and was likely to produce shoulder dysfunction and skin ulceration. The patient appeared well 10 months after surgery with no signs of recurrence. This report highlights the timing and indication of surgical excision in similar cases.

종양성 석회증은 칼슘과 인산의 대사장애 없이 관절주위의 연부조직에 석회성분의 침착을 일으키는 질환으로 그 원인은 정확히 알려져 있지 않으며, 발생빈도는 매우 드물며 주로 흑인에서 발생한 예들이 보고되어 있으나 황인종에서 수 차례 재발되어 보고된 예는 아직 없다. 이에 저자들은 우측 슬관절과 대퇴부에 발생하여 수 차례 재발된 종양성 석회증 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하고자 한다. 21세 여자 환자로서 우측 슬관절과 대퇴부 후방의 종괴를 주소로 내원하였으며 과거력상 14년 전부터 타 병원에서 4차례에 걸쳐 생검 및 제거술을 실시하였으나 재발을 반복하였다. 치료로서 제거 가능한 종괴의 철저한 변연 절제술을 시행하였으며 조직학적 소견상 종양성 석회증으로 진단되었던 예이었다. 술 후 24개월 이상 추시 관찰하여 현재까지 재발의 소견이 없었다. 저자들은 황인종에서 발생빈도가 드문 재발된 종양성 석회증 1예를 보고하는 바이다.

We experienced a case of soft tissue osteochondroma in the foot. The 43-years-old male was complained palpable mass and mild pain at the heel for 3 years. The plain radiograpy revealed a bony mass without connection of neighbor bone in the heel. The osteochondroma in the soft tissue is rare benign tumor. The mass was removed en bloc. The gross and histologic findings were consistent with osteochondroma. The differential diagnosis includes myositis ossificans, tumoral calcinosis, synovial chondromatosis, soft tissue osteochondroma, and true osteochondroma which arises from bone. The symptom was improved. After postoperative 1 year, recurrence was not.
