Multiple rice body formation in chronic subacromial/subdeltoid bursitis: MR appearances

J F Griffith et al. Clin Radiol. 1996 Jul.

Abstract

Multiple rice body formation is an unusual complication of chronic bursitis. Clinically and macroscopically, it can resemble synovial osteochondromatosis. Radiographic and MR appearances, however, may allow an accurate pre-operative diagnosis. The imaging features of two middle-aged women with multiple subacromial/subdeltoid bursa rice bodies are described.
