Three Cases

JOSEPH BENINSON, MD; ALEJANDRO MORALES, MD

Arch Dermatol. 1964;90(3):314-318.

Abstract
Three cases of calcification (ectopic mineral deposition) associated with leg ulcers are presented, and the literature on this problem is reviewed. Because "calcium" or bone may act as a foreign body, the need for x-ray studies of recalcitrant leg ulcers is emphasized.

Our technique for treatment and follow-up of these lesions is noted.
