Abstract

Radiography maintain their importance as a basic imaging modality in the evaluation of the musculoskeletal system from past to present. To maximize the diagnostic value of radiography, proper patient positioning is essential. Musculoskeletal calcifications have multiple appearances and locations. Each location has a specific short differential diagnosis, with minimal further investigation necessary. The relatively rare occurrence of this condition around the elbow could lead to a misdiagnosis or delay the definitive diagnosis. This rare case of calcific medial epycondylitis demonstrates why we should always review two views when looking for musculoskeletal pathologies. We also point to the role of ultrasound to confirm diagnosis.

Özet

Radyografi, geçmişten günümüze kas-iskelet sisteminin değerlendirilmesinde temel bir görüntüleme yöntemi olarak önemini korumaktadır. Radyografinin tanısal değerini en üst düzeye çıkarmak için uygun hasta pozisyonlaması önemlidir. Kas-iskelet kalsifikasyonlarının multipl görünüm ve lokasyonları vardır. Her lokasyonun, minimum ileri araştırma gerekliliği ile spesifik bir kısa ayırıcı tanısı vardır. Bu durumun dirsek çevresinde nispeten nadir görülmesi yanlış tanıya neden olabilir veya kesin tanıyı geciktirebilir. Bu nadir kalsifik mediyal epikondilit vakası, kas-iskelet sistemi patolojilerini ararken neden her zaman 2 yönlü gözden geçirmemiz gerektiğini göstermektedir. Ayrıca tanıyı doğrulamak için ultrasonun rolüne de işaret ediyoruz.
