Avid 18F-FDG Uptake in Idiopathic Tumoral Calcinosis Mimicking Lymph Node Metastasis
Tumoral calcinosis is a benign condition characterized by periarticular calcified lesions that is frequently observed in patients with chronic renal failure. Tumoral calcinosis often presents with subcutaneous masses and joint swelling. We present a case

Hyperphosphatemic Tumoral Calcinosis
Tumoral calcinosis is a rare syndrome characterized by progressively growing and painless masses of calcium phosphate deposits within periarticular areas. Biochemical findings are normal except for an association with hyperphosphatemia. This report describes hyperphosphatemic tumoral calcinosis in a 22-year-old man who had been operated on five times ...

Dietary phosphate restriction normalizes biochemical and skeletal abnormalities in a murine model of tumoral calcinosis [PDF]
Mutations in the GALNT3 gene cause tumoral calcinosis characterized by ectopic calcifications due to persistent hyperphosphatemia. We recently developed Galnt3 knockout mice in a mixed background, which had hyperphosphatemia with increased bone mineral ...
