Calcinosis cutis is a clinical presentation that is quite striking. Once you start recognizing the appearance (often a firm erythematous plaque on the dorsum, axilla, etc.), it becomes easier to add to the differential list. It can be caused by endogenous or exogenous steroid. This episode will go over the clinical presentation, diagnostics, and treatment.
