Distal biceps femoris tendon is an unusual site of calcific tendinitis and a rare cause of knee pain. We present a case of 72-year-old lady who presented with a six-month history of pain over the lateral aspect of knee. Subsequent imaging demonstrated calcific deposits within the biceps femoris tendon substance. She was then successfully treated with ultrasound-guided barbotage of the calcium deposits and peri-tendinous corticosteroid injection. Clinical awareness of the unusual sites of calcific tendinitis with imaging evidence is important for early diagnosis and appropriate management.
股二头肌远端肌腱是钙化性肌腱炎的不常见部位，也是膝关节疼痛的罕见原因。我们报告一例72岁女性患者，她有六个月的膝关节外侧疼痛病史。随后的影像学检查显示股二头肌肌腱内有钙化沉积。她随后通过超声引导下对钙沉积物进行冲洗和肌腱周围皮质类固醇注射得到成功治疗。对钙化性肌腱炎的不常见部位有临床认识并结合影像学证据，对早期诊断和恰当治疗很重要。
