Abstract: A multimodality approach has been proposed as an effective treatment for calciphylaxis in patients with end-stage kidney disease. In this retrospective study, we report the cases of 12 end-stage kidney disease patients from l’Hôtel-Dieu de Québec hospital (Canada) who were diagnosed with calciphylaxis between 2004 and 2012 and treated with a multimodality clinical approach including sodium thiosulfate (STS). Statistical analyses were performed to evaluate the impacts of patients characteristics, the different … Show more

Warfarin administration interferes with the vitamin K-dependent activation of Matrix G1a protein and can lead to the development of calciphylaxis [5][6][7]. There is also a medical entity called warfarin-induced skin necrosis, presenting a similar clinical picture with ulcerative-necrotic plaques.…”
