Calcinosis in cutaneous PAN is not a recognized feature. We describe the case of a 37-year-old woman who presented with tender ulcerated subcutaneous nodules on the lower legs consistent with cutaneous PAN, and she also showed features of MCTD with extensive secondary subcutaneous calcification. ...
