Restrictive Dermopathy: A Rare Disease with Unusual Radiographic Findings

Del Med J. 2016 Oct;88(10):308-310.

Abstract

The patient is a unique case presenting with presumed Restrictive Dermopathy (RD) and intracranial and adrenal calcifications, an association not previously described in the literature. This case postulates the possibility of additional radiographic features that can be included in the spectrum of RD or as secondary events from the underlying pathophysiology of RD.
