[Effect of steroids on the development of soft-tissue calcifications at the margin of the distal tuberosity of the fingers].
Long-term corticosteroid therapy leads to an increase in soft tissue calcification at the margin of the distal tuberosity of the fingers, which normally occurs infrequently. This steroid-induced calcification is most often seen in chronic respiratory disturbances.
