Abstract
We describe a patient with idiopathic arterial calcification of infancy and the following unusual features of the disease: (1) prolonged survival until age 11 years, (2) discordance between the extent of vascular calcification and clinical manifestations of arterial luminal occlusion, (3) a large area of myocardial calcification, (4) symptoms of cerebral-vascular insufficiency, and (5) spontaneous resolution of hypertension.Entities:
