Tumoral calcinosis is a disorder characterized by deposits of calcium phosphate in the subcutaneous tissues near large joints. While often resembling a neoplasm, the soft tissue deposits of tumoral calcinosis are benign in nature. The deposits can, however, cause significant morbidity to patients due to tissue pressure or impingement. The focus of this case report will include the presentation, radiographic examinations, clinical course, and treatment of a 90-year-old female patient presenting for evaluation of a painful plantar right foot soft tissue mass associated with chronic renal failure and secondary hyperparathyroidism.
肿瘤性钙化是一种以大关节附近皮下组织中磷酸钙沉积为特征的疾病。虽然肿瘤性钙化的软组织沉积物常类似肿瘤，但其本质是良性的。然而，这些沉积物可因组织受压或受侵而给患者带来严重的发病情况。本病例报告的重点将包括一名90岁女性患者的临床表现、影像学检查、临床病程及治疗，该患者因右足底疼痛性软组织肿块前来评估，该肿块与慢性肾衰竭和继发性甲状旁腺功能亢进有关。
