ABSTRACT

When faced with eczematous lesions involving the nipple-areolar complex (NAC), Paget's disease is assumed to be the diagnosis, anything else being considered a "Zebra" necessitating its exclusion on pathology. A middle-aged lady presented with synchronous asymmetrical ulceration of bilateral NAC with pleomorphic calcifications on mammography and simultaneous extensive vascular calcification in bilateral breasts that suggested systemic cause. Calciphylaxis is a rare diagnosis occurring usually due to underlying end-stage renal disease or hyperparathyroidism. There are very few case reports of calciphylaxis due to alcoholic liver disease and no cases to the best of our knowledge involving NAC. We report an extremely rare case of breast and NAC calciphylaxis due to alcoholic liver disease, highlighting need to consider benign etiology when bilateral involvement is present.
