Abstract
Severe skin necrosis of poor prognosis have been rarely reported among chronic renal failure patients. Their clinical outbreak must rapidly lead to search for a secondary hyperparathyroidism. Early parathyroide ctomy seems is the only treatment able to stop the progression of ?he skin lesions. From an original clinical observation we discuss the dif ferent mechanisms involved.
