Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystal deposition disease has multiple clinical features with variable courses creating several pitfalls in clinical diagnosis. There are number of reported cases mimicking malignant skeletal tumors such as chondrosarcoma. However, no case of CPPD disease with radiographic noncalcified soft tissue mass has been reported in the literature. Here we report a case of CPPD disease clinically mimicking soft tissue tumor with its magnetic resonance imaging appearance and histopathology.
二水焦磷酸钙(CPPD)晶体沉积病具有多种临床特征,病程多变,给临床诊断带来了一些陷阱。有许多报告的病例酷似恶性骨肿瘤,如软骨肉瘤。然而,文献中尚未报道过具有影像学非钙化软组织肿块的CPPD病病例。在此,我们报告一例临床上酷似软组织肿瘤的CPPD病病例,并介绍其磁共振成像表现和组织病理学情况。
