The presence of a calcified mass in the soft tissue may be the result of any number of processes. Post-traumatic changes and metabolic alterations may both lead to such calcification. The presence of calcification is much less commonly seen in malignant neoplasms. A case of calcifying synovial sarcoma with unusual features was recently seen.
