Sumario:We present the case of a 54-year-old woman who had calcinosis cutis related to sclerodermatous chronic graft versus host disease. Graft versus host disease had developed following stem cell transplantation for acute myelogenous leukemia 14 years earlier, but was shown by skin biopsy to have resolved by the time of presentation. Radiographs showed extensive cutaneous calcifications in the lower extremities.
