A case of pseudoxanthoma elasticum with extensive calcification and elastic tissue damage in the lung is described. This patient had classical skin changes, peripheral arterial calcification, and heart block, but no retinal changes. Hypercalcemia was excluded. Pulmonary involvement is in keeping with the concept of the basic abnormality being in the elastic fibres, and such involvement should be considered as a cause of respiratory symptoms in patients with this condition.
本文描述了一例弹性假黄瘤患者，其肺部出现广泛钙化和弹性组织损伤。该患者有典型的皮肤改变、外周动脉钙化和心脏传导阻滞，但无视网膜改变。已排除高钙血症。肺部受累符合基本异常存在于弹性纤维中的概念，并且这种受累应被视为该疾病患者出现呼吸道症状的一个原因。
