Abstract (2. Language):
While metastatic calcifications are frequently observed in patients treated with dialysis, calciphylaxis
remains as a rare but a life-threatening complication. Calciphylaxis results in tissue ischemia and
necrosis and is highly progressive. In this case, we report a rapidly progressing calciphylaxis case as
well as pointing to the significance of early diagnosis and treatment and the need for a multidisciplinary
approach.

Abstract (Original Language):
Diyaliz tedavisi gören hastalarda metastatik kalsifikasyon sıklıkla gözlenmekle beraber, kalsiflaksi
nadir ve hayatı tehdit eden bir komplikasyondur. Kalsiflaksi doku iskemi ve nekrozu sonucu oldukça
hızla ilerler. Bu yazıda, hızlı ilerleyen bir kalsiflaksi olgusunun erken tanı ve multidisipliner yaklaşımla
tedavisini sunduk.
