RESUMO
Paediatric calcified tendinitis is a rare entity. Although trauma is a triggering factor, the aetiology is unknown. Conservative management is the treatment of choice with most patients experiencing symptom resolution within six weeks. We describe the case of a six-year-old male child with persistent wrist pain despite conservative treatment. Exploration revealed involvement of the extensor carpi radialis brevis, and complete recovery after surgical excision of the lesion identified on X-ray.
