“…We found that surgery neither inhibited the recurrence of the ectopic calcification nor decreased the serum phosphorus, regardless of the decreased serum PTH. More recently, isolated cases reported successful rapid regression of calcium deposits in tumoral calcinosis post-parathyroidectomy [13], [14], although the procedure of choice remains controversial.…”

HighlightsMultiple tumor-like ectopic calcifications is a rare syndrome.Complete excisions of the ectopic calcifications were performed, without signs of recurrence in the same sites at follow-up.Incomplete excision of the ectopic calcification in the right shoulder resulted in recurrence in the same site.Subtotal parathyroidectomy with parathyroid autotransplantation appeared not to inhibit the recurrence of ectopic calcification in patients with CRF.

Tumoral calcinosis is a rare condition characterized by the deposition of calcium material in extra-articular soft tissues taking a tumoral form. It can be primary or secondary. The chronic kidney disease is among cause of metastatic calcifications but the extensive periarticular cyst-like calcium salt containing space-consuming lesions in the form of tumoral calcinosis is very rare. Different factors predispose the dialysis patient to calcium salt deposits. We report a case of 61 years-old-patient with chronic kidney disease under periodic hemodialysis due to hypertensive nephropathy who developed mechanical pain, evolving since three months, in the left hip, the upper extremity of the right leg and both shoulders with swelling and limited movement interfering with daily activity. The severe TC was diagnosed by the radiography and MRI requiring the modification of treatment strategy.

“…In the surgical removal of the TC, we must pay attention to the wound infection from our result. In chronic kidney disease patients with secondary TC, early subtotal parathyroidectomy may be an approach to treatment to avoid aggravation [ 13 ]. At present, treatment for TC has not been established.…”

Hyperphosphatemic Tumoral Calcinosis after Total Knee Arthroplasty

We report a case of hyperphosphatemic tumoral calcinosis (TC) that occurred after total knee arthroplasty. A 64-year-old Japanese man presented with painful swellings in both shoulders, the left elbow, and the right hip that developed after he underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The pathology of the patient's bone at the time of TKA included a thick osteoid seam with calcareous deposition at the margin of the trabecular bone, which is not generally seen in osteoarthritis. Computed tomography scans of the swollen joints demonstrated leaflet and amorphous calcification masses around the joints. We diagnosed the patient with TC. The present case highlights that TC lesions are rare but should be considered in the differential diagnosis of subcutaneous soft and hard masses around the joint.
