Abstract
Tumoral calcinosis, also known as Teutschländer disease, is a rare familial disorder characterized by painless periarticular masses [1]. Strictly speaking, the term refers to a disease caused by an inherited metabolic dysfunction of phosphate regulation associated with massive periarticular calcinosis, and not to soft tissue calcification in general [2]. The most frequent localizations are the hips, shoulders and elbows [3].
