Calcinosis universalis associated with tuberculosis.

A A Awotedu, F Komolafe.   

Abstract

A 12-year-old girl with clinical evidence of abdominal tuberculosis also had a widespread soft tissue calcification termed calcinosis universalis. Despite antituberculous therapy the patient died and autopsy confirmed tuberculous peritonitis. No cause could be found for the soft tissue calcification. The co-existence of the two diseases is probably incidental.
