Résumé
A 41-year-old woman who had chronic renal failure required a simple mastectomy for infarction of one breast. On initial presentation her condition was managed as a skin ulcer. Arterial calcification is common in chronic renal failure and its pathogenetic connection with this uncommon event is relevant to the management of 'skin ulcers' in general in this population.
