S R M Qadri1, M S Choksey, A Shad.   

Abstract

A rare case of tumoural calcinosis of the cervical spine is presented. Tumoural calcinosis presents with masses of dystrophic calcification in juxta-articular areas. It is very rare in the cervical spine with few cases described in the literature so far. It remains part of the differential diagnosis for any calcified spinal compressive lesion.
