    Author: Alaoui K, Abourazzak S, Oulmaati A, Hida M, Bouharrou A.
    Journal: BMJ Case Rep; 2011 May 12; 2011():. PubMed ID: 22696743.
    Abstract:
    Subcutaneous fat necrosis (SCFN) is a well-described cause of subcutaneous calcification occurring in a young infant. Calcification of areas of fat necrosis in the neonate is a rare condition. In this case, the radiographic demonstration of soft-tissue calcification revealed the skin calcification in the absence of clinical signs of SCFN and without hypercalcaemia in the first 48 h of life.
