%X Calciphylaxis, also called calcific uremic arteriolopathy, is a rare benign cutaneous manifestation. Although little is known about its pathogenesis, it is thought to be a result of vascular wall calcification leading to soft tissue necrosis, and it is usually encountered in patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) on long-term renal dialysis. Breast calciphylaxis is a rare entity that may present as a breast mass or necrotic ulcers, and it is common for it to be initially mistaken for a malignant breast pathology. In this article, we present a case of bilateral breast calciphylaxis in a 66-year-old female with ESKD receiving long-term dialysis.
