ABSTRACT
Perforating calcific elastosis is a localized cutaneous acquired disorder most frequently in obese, multiparous, middle-aged women. We report a case of perforating calcific elastosis in a 66-year-old multiparous woman who had asymptomatic yellowish cobblestoned plaque with keratotic papules scattered on its surface in the periumbilical region. She have been treated to laparoscopic surgery 5 years ago. The biopsy specimen showed basophilic calcified elastic fibers in the dermis that undergo transepidermal elimination. The von Kossa stain showed dense deposition of calcium in this area.
