The calcifications are most frequently found in the superior portion of the longus colli muscle, which causes pain and a significant reduction in cervical motion due to inflammation of the anterior C1 and C2 prevertebral tissue. Literature suggests that ACT of the longus colli muscle presents following trauma or ischemic injury, resulting in the rupture of crystals prompting an inflammatory response. 000043621 540__ $$fCC BY 000043621 542__ $$fIn copyright - joint owners 000043621 650__ $$aCalcinosis$$015959 000043621 650__ $$aNeck Muscles$$022726 000043621 650__ $$aNeck Pain$$031678 000043621 650__ $$aInflammation$$020800 000043621 650__ $$aTendinopathy$$037149 000043621 6531_ $$aacute calcific tendinitis 000043621 6531_ $$alongus colli muscle 000043621 6531_ $$acalcium phosphate crystal deposition disease 000043621 692__ $$aDivision of General Internal Medicine and Geriatrics$$041460 000043621 7001_ $$aBurns, Katie$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000043621 7001_ $$aYoshida, Hirofumi$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000043621 711__ $$aResearch Week$$uOregon Health and Science University$$d2024 000043621 8564_ $$9625c5679-991e-46c2-ade7-6083333552f2$$s141157$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/43621/files/ResearchWeek.2024.Burns.Katie.pdf 000043621 980__ $$aResearch Week
