The computed tomography (CT) and MRI findings of infantile tumoral calcinosis and the utility of image-guided biopsy are demonstrated. A 5-month old presented with torticollis and a calcified cervical spinal mass. The radiologic appearance suggested a malignant neoplasm, prompting CT-guided biopsy, which diagnosed tumoral calcinosis. We hope to increase awareness of this entity and describe image-guided biopsy as a way to avoid morbidity associated with open biopsy.
展示了婴儿肿瘤性钙化的计算机断层扫描（CT）和磁共振成像（MRI）表现以及图像引导活检的效用。一名5个月大的婴儿因斜颈和颈椎钙化肿块就诊。影像学表现提示为恶性肿瘤，遂进行CT引导下活检，诊断为肿瘤性钙化。我们希望提高对该疾病的认识，并将图像引导活检描述为一种避免开放性活检相关并发症的方法。
