Calcinosis cutis is a rare disorder characterized by the deposition of calcium in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. Unilateral idiopathic calcinosis cutis has only rarely been reported in the literature. Here, we report the case of a 7-year-old healthy girl who presented with multiple asymptomatic hard nodules on the right side of her body. Histopathological, radiological, and extensive blood investigations confirmed the diagnosis of unilateral idiopathic calcinosis cutis.
皮肤钙化症是一种罕见的疾病,其特征是钙在皮肤和皮下组织中沉积。单侧特发性皮肤钙化症在文献中仅有极少的报道。在此,我们报告一例7岁健康女孩的病例,该女孩身体右侧出现多个无症状的硬结节。组织病理学、放射学及全面的血液检查确诊为单侧特发性皮肤钙化症。
