“…A recent case-series from Tunisia also revealed marked periostosis of the long bones in all cases [32]. In addition to knee findings seen in our case, the case reported by Guerini et al [33] showed calcification at the insertion of the quadriceps tendon at the upper edge of the left patella. Our radiographic findings are similar to Reginato et al [6], Matucci-Cerinic et al [18], and Abdullah et al [22].…”
