Calcific tendinitis of the gluteus maximus tendon (gluteus maximus tendinitis). 1983

J F Wepfer, and J G Reed, and G M Cullen, and W P McDevitt

Seven cases of calcific tendinitis of the gluteus maximus tendon are presented. Awareness of the precise anatomic location of the calcific deposit is essential for the accurate diagnosis of this uncommon site of tendinitis. Clinically, the presenting complaint is that of pain. In some instances, however, the patients are asymptomatic and the calcification is an incidental finding.
