Abstract

We report a 85-year-old man who presented a large calcification of the anterior tibial compartment, due to gunshot in war about 60 years ago. He noticed the mass in his left lower leg about 12 years ago, which grew slowly without pain. We diagnosed it as dystrophic calcification of the anterior tibial compartment. After conservative treatment for four months, we performed operation.
