Learn about calcific tendinitis of the longus colli muscle. Patients present with severe acute neck pain and maybe problems swallowing. CPR might be elevated and WBC too. Typically there is no fever. It might look just like a retropharyngeal abscess on Neck CT. If this disease is not recognized, it might have important consequences for the patient. It is the radiologist's role to make the diagnosis. Many clinicians do not know the diagnosis. So you can shine here.
