Calcinosis cutis is a disease process characterized by calcified lesions in the skin. Although there are five subtypes of calcinosis, idiopathic calcinosis cutis is a rare disease process with no clear etiology. It has been described in many parts of the body; however, there are only five reported cases specifically involving the hands. We describe the presentation and successful treatment of a case of idiopathic calcinosis cutis in a 65-year-old man with lesions on his bilateral hands. We believe that surgical excision of symptomatic lesions is a safe and effective treatment for idiopathic calcinosis cutis of the hands.
皮肤钙化症是一种以皮肤出现钙化性病变为特征的疾病过程。尽管皮肤钙化症有五种亚型，但特发性皮肤钙化症是一种病因不明的罕见疾病过程。它已在身体的许多部位被描述过；然而，仅有五例报告具体涉及手部。我们描述了一名65岁男性双侧手部患有特发性皮肤钙化症的病例表现及成功治疗过程。我们认为，对有症状的病变进行手术切除是治疗手部特发性皮肤钙化症的一种安全有效的方法。
