Abstract
Salpeter-induced calcium deposits in ten patients showed a close clinical and histopathological similarity to the lesions of pseudoxanthoma elasticum. By electron microscopy and selected area diffraction analyses of the calcium deposits we find the changes indistinguishable from the changes previously described in involved skin of patients suffering from PXE. Clinically our patients were compared with the fourteen patients with traumatic calcification previously described.
