Article Synopsis
- - Tenosynovitis with psammomatous calcifications (TPC) is a rare, non-cancerous condition that often affects women and is thought to result from repetitive use or trauma, commonly appearing at sites like the hands, feet, and wrists.
- - In a study involving 18 new cases, most patients presented with painful masses, and imaging often showed benign characteristics, but many of these cases were misdiagnosed as more serious conditions like gout or tumors.
- - Follow-up on patients (mostly for around 30 months) showed no local recurrences after surgical removal, highlighting the necessity for greater awareness among medical professionals regarding TPC.

We report here a rare case of an acute peripheral nerve compression by pseudotumoral calcinosis (PCT) at the right elbow in a patient with severe tertiary hyperaparathyroidism. This complication required urgent multidisciplinary management. Surgical decompression by PCT resection enabled rapid motor and sensory recovery.

We report the case of a 48 year old man brought-in-dead to the trauma unit following an alleged accidental fall from a multi-storied building. Autopsy findings were consistent with traumatic injuries to the head, chest and spine. Incidentally, a bit of the diaphragm with a pearly white lobulated mass over the pleural surface was observed.

In our case, an expansion of the left hypogastrium with central calcification, in intimate contact with intestinal loops, of rather benign etiology, reminiscent of a mesenteric calcifying fibrous tumor, was accidentally detected on CT angiography. A possible neoplastic process was suspected, and therefore PET/CT was completed, showing that the expansion had moved to the right hypogastrium, and the radiologist evaluated the finding as a possible teratoma not originating from an intestinal loop.
