Abstract
This case concerns a 62-year-old lady with persistent right knee pain. A conventional radiograph and additional MRI scan showed Hydroxyapatite crystal deposition disease (HADD) of the medial head of the gastrocnemius muscle. This was treated with a course of NSAIDs and functional weight-bearing mobilisation.
