Unusual complication of soft tissue calcifications in chronic renal disease: the articular erosions. 1980

A Meneghello, and M Bertoli, and G F Romagnoli

A rare complication, articular bone erosions adjacent to peri-articular calcifications, was observed in patients undergoing chronic haemodialysis. Three cases are described and the discussion describes the pathogenesis of the lesion, which, as far as is known by the authors, has not yet been reported in the literature.
