Abstract
We report on a 77-year-old woman with a recalcitrant leg ulcer that contained and extruded calcified material. Roentgenograms of the involved leg showed extensive subcutaneous calcification. The literature concerning subcutaneous calcification in venous insufficiency is reviewed. The patient responded to surgical debridement of the calcified tissue and subsequent skin grafting.Entities:
