Tumoral calcinosis: an unusual cause of cutaneous calcification.

Abstract:

:Tumoral calcinosis is an uncommon ectopic calcification syndrome characterized clinically by the presence of irregular, painless, periarticular soft tissue calcifying masses, and pathologically by fibrous-walled cystic spaces containing structureless calcific debris and associated with a variable inflammatory reaction. The pathogenesis remains obscure but the condition probably represents a disordered tissue reparative process. Of the previous literature reports, almost all have been in patients of African origin. We report a case in a white English woman.
