Abstract
A 62-year-old woman presented with a ten-year history of recurrent hard nodules on the hands. Skin biopsy revealed calcium deposition in the dermis, and a diagnosis of calcinosis cutis was made. In addition, laboratory tests revealed positivity for anticentromere antibodies at a titer of 1: 163. Although the patient has not fnlfilled the clinical diagnostic criteria for systemic sclerosis, we consider that the calcinosis might be related to the eanly symptom of systemic sclerosis (limited type).
