We present a case involving a 33-year-old man suffering two weeks of blurred vision and progressive pain and black discoloration of glans penis due to calcific uremic arteriolopathy. The hard black eschar was noticed over the distal third of the penis and the part of the scrotum. Dry gangrene was also present in both feet, the right ankle and thigh. An unenhanced computed tomography scan of the abdomen showed extensive vascular calcifications, particularly the dorsal penile vessels. Calcific uremic arteriolopathy is a form of ischemic necrosis predominantly implicating areas of adiposity in the body, including the trunk, buttocks, or distal extremities. Although the pathogenesis of calcific uremic arteriolopathy is not completely understood, studies have discussed the involvement of secondary hyperparathyroidism, hyperphosphatemia, and increased calcium phosphorus product. Penile calciphylaxis is a rare disease because glans penis is not an adipose area. Early diagnosis and multidisciplinary approach are necessary due to high possibility of mortality. |
