Abstract

Calcium deposits in elastic fibers of involved skin of patients suffering from pseudoxanthoma elasticum have previously been reported. In the present work, the crystalline structure and composition were studied. Involved skin was obtained from 5 patients. Bright-field and dark-field electron microscopy and selected area electron diffraction of the calcium deposits were applied. The study demonstrates calcium apatite crystals.

Abstract

Salpeter-induced calcium deposits in ten patients showed a close clinical and histopathological similarity to the lesions of pseudoxanthoma elasticum. By electron microscopy and selected area diffraction analyses of the calcium deposits we find the changes indistinguishable from the changes previously described in involved skin of patients suffering from PXE. Clinically our patients were compared with the fourteen patients with traumatic calcification previously described.
