[Subcutaneous calcifications. A case of Thibierge-Weissenbach syndrome]

When faced with subcutaneous calcifications the possibility of the Thibierge-Weissenbach syndrome, either in its initial stages or already evolutive, may be forgotten. In one typical case that was followed for 20 years, the calcifications had taken second place to the scleroderma and circulatory disorders that had rapidly dominated the picture : Raynaud's phenomenon, arteritis of the extremities with extremely acute pain that was lessened only by sympathetic infiltrations or intra-arterial injections.
