[CT findings in calcified pseudotumors in hemodialysis patients].
Three patients undergoing haemodialysis, who had extensive calcified pseudo-tumours, were examined by computer tomography. In two patients bone destruction was present, which was obscured by the calcification on conventional radiographs. In one patient an abscess in the vicinity of the pseudo-tumour was discovered by CT. CT enables exact localisation of the calcified areas to be achieved and aids therapy.
