Motivation: Tumoral Calcinosis (TC) is a rare condition that has a broad range of differential diagnoses. This often leads to delayed diagnosis and consequently delayed or inappropriate treatment, which often includes invasive procedures. MRI findings can be used to support the diagnosis, which is helpful in a resource-limited setting where histopathology services are scarce or unavailable.
Goal(s): We aimed to highlight the value of MRI in diagnosing TC in resource-limited settings where histopathology services are unavailable or limited.
Approach: We correlated MRI and histopathology to aid in the diagnosis of this rare condition.
Results: MRI features included multilobulated appearance, fluid-calcium sedimentation, and rim enhancement.
Impact: MRI plays a pivotal role in diagnosing TC in resource-limited settings with histopathology service constraints. It offers critical imaging insights, aiding in early identification and differential diagnosis, thereby supporting timely management when immediate histopathological analysis is unavailable.
