abstract
|
Calcific tendinitis at the femoral insertion of the glutaeus maximus
tendon is an unusual but well-described location for an ossifying
enthesopathy. Extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy has become a
standard therapy for various pathologies in orthopaedics. We report
a case of a 50-year-old man with painful calcific tendinitis at the
femoral insertion of the glutaeus maximus tendon who successfully
underwent extracorporeal shock-wave treatment.
