Where this comes from

Abstract

Diaphysitis is uncommon in children. We describe a case of diaphyseal inflammation in several bones with high levels of phosphorus in an 8-year-old boy who later developed subcutaneous masses of tumoral calcinosis. This report serves as a review of this puzzling problem in clinical diagnosis.
