  • Title: [Nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy. Report of two cases].
    Author: Concha MR, Vera CK, Jara AC, Atabales FA, González SB.
    Journal: Rev Med Chil; 2007 May; 135(5):640-6. PubMed ID: 17657334.
    Abstract:
    Nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy is a recent designation to describe cutaneous findings in patients with renal disease who developed scleromyxedema-like skin lesions with thickening and hardening of the skin. These skin lesions appear mainly after hemodialysis or renal transplantation but their origin is still unknown. We report a 63 years old male on hemodialysis and 56 years old male on peritoneal dialysis, who developed a nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy that was confirmed by pathology and immunohistochemistry with monoclonal antibodies against CD34).
