We report the occurrence of calcinosis cutis in a 3-year-old girl after liver transplantation. The cutaneous lesions consisted of 5 mm white papules on an erythematous base in linear and rosette configurations that developed in the abdominal and lumbar areas 10 days after transplantation. The patient had received calcium chloride solution intravenously during surgery. We excluded other causes of ectopic calcification such as hyperparathyroidism, renal failure, and extravasation of calcium solution. We discuss the etiology of calcinosis cutis after liver transplantation. This sequence of events has not been previously described in pediatric patients.
我们报告了一名3岁女童肝移植后发生皮肤钙化症的病例。皮肤损害表现为移植后10天在腹部和腰部出现的、呈线状和玫瑰花结状排列的、基底为红斑的5毫米白色丘疹。该患者在手术期间接受了氯化钙溶液静脉输注。我们排除了其他异位钙化的原因，如甲状旁腺功能亢进、肾衰竭和钙溶液外渗。我们讨论了肝移植后皮肤钙化症的病因。这一系列事件此前在儿科患者中尚未有过描述。
