Abstract
|
|
|
|
Localized scleroderma is a connective tissue disorder characterized by thickening and fibrosis of the skin due to excessive collagen deposition in the dermis. Dystrophic calcinosis occurs when calcium is deposited in the previously damaged skin tissue, and calcium and phosphorous levels in the blood are within normal limits. It occurs secondary to connective tissue disease, infection, inflammatory processes, chronic venous stasis, cutaneous neoplasm, and trauma. We report a rare case of dystrophic calcinosis cutis with transepidermal elimination secondary to localized scleroderma.
