Abstract
|
|
|
Perforating calcific elastosis referred to as periumbilical perforating pseudoxanthoma elasticum that can occur in middle-aged, multiparous, obese women with a possible genetic predisposition to pseudoxanthoma elasticum.
We report two cases which showed the clinical and histopathologic findings of perforating calcific elastosis in a 77 year-old and a 69 year-old woman, Clinically, the lesions were well-demarcated, yellow to brownish hyperpigmented and verrucous
plaques
with discrete keratotic papules just above the umbilicus. Histopathologically, altered basophilic calcified elastic fibers were extruded through the hyperplastic epidermis to the surface of the skin and were present in the reticular dermis. (Kor
