title: Porphyria cutanea tarda with cutaneous "scleroderma" and calcification.
abstract: An unusual case of porphria cutanea tarda (PCT) with sclerodermoid changes is reported. This case is remarkable for the extent of sclerodermoid changes and the presence of gross dystrophic calcification and ulceration in the sclerotic areas. The pathogenesis of this condition is discussed.
