A case of cutaneous calcinosis of the footpads in a cat is described. The animal had developed lameness of one hindleg which was presumably due to infection by an abscess-like lesion of one pad. Histologically the lesion proved to be based on a cutaneous calcinosis. Shortly afterwards the animal died of uremia. Post mortem examination revealed fine granular shrinkage of the kidneys and signs of demineralisation of the skeleton accompanied by calcifications in the pads of all four paws, major arteries, hear, kidneys, lung and gastric mucosa. The clinical and morphological findings suggest a cutaneous calcinosis of the footpads as an additional localisation of extraosseous calcification in osteorenal syndrome.
本文描述了一例猫脚垫皮肤钙质沉着症病例。该动物出现一条后腿跛行，推测是由于一个脚垫出现类似脓肿的病变感染所致。组织学检查证明该病变基于皮肤钙质沉着症。不久后，该动物死于尿毒症。尸检显示肾脏出现细微颗粒状萎缩，骨骼有脱矿迹象，同时四个爪子的脚垫、主要动脉、心脏、肾脏、肺和胃黏膜均有钙化。临床和形态学检查结果表明，脚垫皮肤钙质沉着症是骨肾综合征中骨外钙化的另一个部位。
