OBJECTIVE: Calcific myonecrosis masses can become quite large and worrisome for malignancy. The key to recognition is a combination of radiologic imaging features and remote clinical history of injury associated with compartment syndrome or vascular or neurologic compromise. CONCLUSION: This article will highlight importance of correct diagnosis by identifying the severe and devastating complications following inappropriate management.
