Calciphylaxis is a rare dermatological condition strongly associated with chronic kidney disease. The pathophysiology and optimum treatment remain uncertain. Calciphylaxis is known mostly to affect dialysis patients but is less frequently reported in renal transplant recipients. We report the case of a renal transplant recipient who had undergone previous total parathyroidectomy.

Calciphylaxis is a rare life-threatening form of skin necrosis. Although traditionally observed in patients with end-stage renal disease and/or hyperparathyroidism, calciphylaxis has also been reported to occur in 'non-traditional' patients with normal renal and parathyroid function. We report a case of warfarin-induced calciphylaxis treated successfully with sodium thiosulphate and discuss the role of Vitamin K2 as a potential therapeutic option in the management of warfarin-induced calciphylaxis.
