Abstract
Calcific tendinopathy is characterized by the deposition of calcium, mostly hydroxyapatite crystals, in tendons. Women are more frequently affected than men, with prevalence in the fourth and fifth decades of life. This condition has been reported between 2.5 and 7.5% of healthy shoulders in adults, but other tendons may also be affected. A complication of this condition is the migration of calcium deposits from tendons, usually the supraspinatus, into the subacromial-subdeltoid bursa. We reported a rare complication of calcific tendinopathy, that is, calcium deposits migrated from the long head of the biceps tendon over the proximal tract of the biceps brachii muscle.
