Twenty-six cases of tumoral calcinosis are reported from Kenya. The disease, frequently misdiagnosed, is of unknown origin. It presents as calcified tumours, usually around the hips and buttocks, in muscle and subcutaneous tissue. The tumours are partly solid, partly multiloculated cysts which contain a chalky fluid. They may grow rapidly or very slowly, and are found in children and adults. Both sexes are affected and there is no obvious tribal or geographical localization.
肯尼亚报告了26例肿瘤性钙化症病例。这种疾病常被误诊，病因不明。它表现为钙化肿瘤，通常出现在臀部和臀部周围的肌肉及皮下组织中。肿瘤部分为实性，部分为多房性囊肿，内含白垩样液体。它们可能生长迅速或非常缓慢，在儿童和成人中均有发现。男女均可患病，且无明显的部落或地理分布局限。
