Although a rare diagnosis, with few reports in the literature, calcific myonecrosis is a diagnosis that must be entertained in individuals presenting with expanding masses in the muscle compartments occurring years after an initial injury. The authors report a previously healthy 66-year-old man with an expanding right lower extremity mass felt initially to be an abscess. Despite presumably appropriate antimicrobial therapy, the lesion continued to expand, causing pain and loss of function. The patient subsequently underwent extensive debridement and free muscle flap transfer with an excellent outcome. This patient serves to remind us that, although calcific myonecrosis is an uncommonly encountered condition, it must be maintained in the differential diagnosis of an expanding muscle compartment mass.
