Abstract

Calcific myonecrosis is a rare and latent condition of the lower extremities after a trauma and is characterized by the formation of a fusiform mass lesion in the anterior compartment of the leg showing peripheral dystrophic calcification and central liquefaction. We report the radiologic findings of calcific myonecrosis in a patient with a lower extremity calcified mass lesion.

석회 근괴사증은 외상을 입은 하지에서 발생하는 드문 잠재성 병변이다. 이 병변은 하지의 전방 구획에 주변부 이 영양성석회화와 중심부 액화를 동반하는 방추형의 종괴를 형성하는 것이 특징이다. 저자들은 하지에 석회화성 종괴로 보이는 석회 근괴사증 환자의 증례를 보고하고자 한다.
