Best Practice Case Studies-Calcific Tendonitis RC

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In the video, Sagar Wagle, a musculoskeletal radiology fellow at Stanford, discusses cases of calcific tendinopathy in the shoulder. A 56-year-old woman with a palpable mass and shoulder pain exhibits calcification on the humeral head, visible through various imaging techniques. This condition is treated using the Barbatas procedure, where a needle injects a serine and lidocaine solution into the calcification, which is then washed out along with the calcified material. Another case involves a 43-year-old woman with similar symptoms, treated using the same method. The procedure is guided by ultrasound.
