[Calcific uremic arteriolopathy (calciphylaxis) : update in 2018].
Revue Médicale Suisse 2018 Februrary 22
Calciphylaxis is a rare disease with a poor prognostic that mostly occurs in patients with renal failure. Diagnosis is difficult and skin biopsy is the gold standard diagnostic procedure, although it may aggravate skin lesions. Identification of the typical cutaneous signs is important to initiate adequate medical care. Several differential diagnoses must be excluded. Treatments should include appropriate pain management, local wound pain, daily dialysis, intravenous sodium thiosulfate treatment, hyperbaric oxygenotherapy, thigh control of calcium-phosphate metabolism and interruption of medications that could contribute to calciphylaxis. Palliative care should be considered in uncontrolled clinical course.
