AB A  55-year-old  woman  with  end-stage  renal  disease  (ESRD),  dependent  on  dialysis  for  14  years,  presented  with  multiple  highly  painful  plaques  on  her  abdomen  and  flank  over  the  last  month  (Figure  96-1).  The  lesions  ulcerated  over  that  period  of  time.  Her  intact  parathyroid  hormone  level  was  1514  pg/mL  at  the  time  of  presentation.  This  patient  underwent  parathyroidectomy  for  tertiary  hyperparathyroidism  and  sodium  thiosulfate  treatments  with  dialysis  but  continued  to  have  chronic  pain  related  to  the  skin  manifestations  of  calciphylaxis.
