Calciphylaxis is a rare and highly morbid condition that has continued to challenge the medical community since its early descriptions in the scientific literature many decades ago. Calciphylaxis predominantly affects patients with chronic kidney disease treated by dialysis but is also described in patients with normal kidney function. We report a rare case of a patient who presented with calciphylaxis associated with multiple myeloma and rheumatoid arthritis. With a better understanding of its pathophysiology, more effective therapies are being developed.
钙化防御是一种罕见且高度致命的疾病，早在几十年前在科学文献中首次描述以来，一直给医学界带来挑战。钙化防御主要影响接受透析治疗的慢性肾脏病患者，但也有描述发生于肾功能正常的患者。我们报告了一例罕见病例，患者患有多发性骨髓瘤和类风湿关节炎，并伴有钙化防御。随着对其病理生理学的更好理解，正在开发更有效的治疗方法。
