Calcifying tendinitis of rotator cuff is a common and evolutive pathology of the shoulder. This article supports the efficiency of imaging-guided needle puncture trituration and lavage in rotator cuff calcifications after failure of medical treatment. Overall efficiency of this economical ambulatory treatment ranges in the literature from 49 to 100 % and no complication is noted. In our opinion this technique should be used before arthroscopic or surgical removal of the calcifying tendinitis.
肩袖钙化性肌腱炎是一种常见的、渐进性的肩部疾病。本文支持在药物治疗失败后，影像引导下的针穿刺捣碎和灌洗治疗肩袖钙化的有效性。这种经济的门诊治疗的总体有效率在文献中为49%至100%，且未发现并发症。我们认为，在关节镜或手术切除钙化性肌腱炎之前应采用该技术。
