Abstract

We describe a 33-year-old woman with acute calcific periarthritis (ACP) of the interphalangeal joint of the thumb and review 42 reported cases of ACP involving the finger joints. A computer assisted literature search for reported cases of ACP involving the finger joints was performed. Clinical features of our case and those fulfilling the criteria for entry into this study were analyzed.
