Abstract
- Calcinosis cutis is the deposition of calcium phosphate into the skin. It is classified as dystrophic if the calcium is deposited in previously damaged tissue and serum calcium and phosphorous levels are normal. We report a case of dystrophic calcinosis cutis in a 35-year-old man. About 2 months ago, he developed an ulcer in the left thigh that was treated by grafting. Histopathologically, amorphous basophilic materials that stained with von Kossa were deposited in the dermis.
