[Possible recourse to plastic surgery in the treatment of subcutaneous calcinosis].

The authors report three cases of subcutaneous calcinoses of the leg, one after burns, the other two after voluntary injection of essence of terpentine. The evolution and recurrences after tentative surgical treatment prove that excision is indicated when a calcareous plaque has led to cutaneous ulceration. This resection must be complete and may thus involve skin grafts or cover flaps.
