Systemic Calciphylaxis

Southern Medical Journal, 1994
Systemic calciphylaxis is a rare, poorly understood syndrome of progressive ischemic necrosis, usually associated with hyperparathyroidism. The combination of hyperparathyroidism, usually secondary or tertiary, and chronic renal failure seems to produce a particular biochemical environment conducive to the development of an unusual progressive form of ...

An Unusual Case of Calciphylaxis

Journal of Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery: Incorporating Medical and Surgical Dermatology, 2004
Background: Cutaneous calciphylaxis is a rare disorder that occurs most frequently in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), those on hemodialysis, and renal transplant recipients. It is frequently associated with hyperparathyroidism and a markedly elevated calcium–phosphate product, and it carries a high mortality rate.
