Abstract
Cutaneous calcinosis is an uncommon condition where it is mostly shown the deposition of calcium in the skin layers, generally associated with by endocrinopathies of the adrenal cortex. Here we report a case of a dog with adrenal gland hyperplasia that developed calcinosis cutis in a middle-aged dog. In this case, the clinical typical presentation, together with histopathological and ultrasonographical findings were extremely important in the elucidation.
