Journal Title: Internal Medicine - Open Journal - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Calciphylaxis is a rare disease occurring in usually obese women around the age of 40 years subject to hemodialysis. It can be prevented by controlling drug intake and biological markers. However, when installed it is irreversible and lethal. We report the case of a very young woman victim of non-observation with very deleterious consequence of calciphylaxis.
