Normophosphatemic type tumoral calcinosis associated with chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis: a case report

Abstract

Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) and tumoral calcinosis are two distinct musculoskeletal diseases with unclear etiopathogenesis. Previously, two CRMO cases with associated tumoral calcinosis were reported. We report a patient who developed tumoral calcinosis after the surgical treatment of CRMO. To our knowledge it is the third patient in whom tumoral calcinosis developed sporadically during follow-up for CRMO.
