Calcific Myonecrosis of Tibialis Anterior in a 76 Years Old Man with Foot Drop
Calcific Myonecrosis of Tibialis Anterior
,
Abstract
Calcific myonecrosis is a rare entity which is considered a sequela of chronic compartment syndrome. A fusiform mass with central liquefaction and peripheral calcification replaces the affected muscle unit. We are presenting a case of calcific myonecrosis of tibialis anterior in 76 years old male. Although the mass was present for several years but recently patient developed leg pain and foot drop. After radiological and histopathological diagnosis patient treated with surgical excision of the mass.
