ABSTRACT
Calcific tendinosis is characterized by macroscopic deposits of hydroxyapatite within the tendon. Commonest location is rotator cuff of shoulder. Cortical erosion with intraosseous migration of calcium deposits is rare complication of this condition. It may be confused with neoplasm or infection, resulting in unnecessary biopsies or interventions. The knowledge of this uncommon complication and its appearance should enable its detection by imaging and lead to specific treatment.
