Pseudoxanthoma elasticum is a genetic disorder of the connective tissue characterised by progressive calcification and fragmentation of the elastic fibres in different body tissues. It has an estimated prevalence of 1 case in 25,000 to 100,000 population and is twice as common in women. Early diagnosis helps to prevent further complications these patients could develop.
