Periorchitis calcificans
In our clinic, we recently had a case of bone formation in the surgical scar at the site of an incision made along the midline of the upper abdomen. Almost along the entire length of the scar, a dense bone plate could be felt, which could be covered from all sides. Unfortunately, the patient did not undergo surgery, but the results of his examination left no doubt that there was bone formation.
In another case of a 26-year-old woman with malarial splenomegaly, when the spleen was removed in our clinic, a bone plate was found in its tissue, apparently formed at the site of a small rupture of the spleen in the past.
In the available literature, we could find a description of only five cases of calcifying periorchitis.
