Abstract
Calcifying tendinitis of rotator cuff is a common and evolutive pathology of the shoulder. This article supports the efficiency of imaging-guided needle puncture trituration and lavage in rotator cuff calcifications after failure of medical treatment. Overall efficiency of this economical ambulatory treatment ranges in the literature from 49 to 100 % and no complication is noted. In our opinion this technique should be used before arthroscopic or surgical removal of the calcifying tendinitis.
