Calcific Tendinitis is a condition characterized by abnormal deposition of hydroxyapatite crystals in the tendons with secondary inflammation. However, complication like intraosseous migration is rare. Hereby we present a case of 58-year-old female patient who presented with pain in the right shoulder along with restricted movements. The MRI scan revealed features of intraosseous migration of calcification in addition to the detailed evaluation of calcific tendinitis. Furthermore, the patient was treated with ultrasound guided aspiration & percutaneous irrigation post which the pain subsided indicating promising therapeutic role of ultrasonography in such cases. Thus multimodality approach can help in complete diagnosis & treatment of this condition.
