Calcification of the heart: a rare manifestation of chronic renal failure.

C R de Moraes.   

Abstract

A case is presented in which chronic renal failure led to intense visceral calcification, mainly to the lungs and heart. The discovery of cardiac calcifications on plain chest radiographs is exceedingly rare in renal patients. Punctate calcific deposits with an almost homogeneous distribution throughout the cardiac muscle were the main feature of this case.
