A 55-year-old man with progressive loss of vision was referred for dermatology consultation for the evaluation of his skin lesions. The cutaneous examination of the patient revealed multiple small yellow papules, coalescing into plaques, on his neck, axillae and periumbilical regions. He also had redundant skin folds on the axillae.

Pseudoxanthoma elasticum [PDF]
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a rare multisystem disorder characterised by progressive calcification and fragmentation of elastic fibres. Recent genetic advances have identified the underlying defect to the ABCC6 gene on chromosome 16p13.1. Patients typically develop cutaneous, ocular, and cardiovascular manifestations but there is considerable ...
