Calcified Vein: Phleboliths are calcified portions of vein (phlebo=vein, lith=stone). They are very common in veins in the pelvis, but not often seen elsewhere in the body. They are typically discovered as an incidental finding on an x-ray or ct scan. They are harmless and don't require any treatment.
