Official Title: Calciphylaxis : Population, Risk Factors, Diagnostic Practice, Therapeutic and Outcome : a Multicentric, Retrospective Cohort

Brief Summary:

Calciphylaxis, also called Calcific Uremic Arteriolopathy (CUA) is a lethal affection mostly affecting patient in end stage renal disease. The survival rate is described around 20 to 46% at one year.

Clinical presentation is very painful skin lesions with ulceration mostly located on the trunk or thigh.

Current knowledge about physiopathology, diagnostic practice and therapeutic is very limited.

Actually there is no European study about calciphylaxis and risk factors, diagnostic practice and outcome factors.
