First author, year Age, sex Surgery/procedure Comorbid conditions Recommendations/conclusions
Adler, 202110 56, male Partial penectomy ESRD, diabetes, hypertension Penectomy may confer infectious source control and improve patient quality of life in penile calciphylaxis with a high risk of progression.
Diasty, 202111 39, female Mitral valve replacement and tricuspid valve repair Posttransplant ESRD, hyperparathyroidism, hypertension, anemia, mitral stenosis, tricuspid regurgitation Exposure to calciphylaxis risk factors should be minimized during surgery for high-risk patients.
Horishita, 200412 43, male Left lower-extremity amputation ESRD Laser Doppler flowmetry is a useful tool for monitoring peripheral blood flow to prevent intraoperative ischemia.
Kriskovich, 200013 53, female Subtotal parathyroidectomy ESRD Early diagnosis and surgical intervention may be beneficial for survival. Parathyroidectomy may be safely performed in this patient population without increased complication rates.

Kriskovich, 200013 58, female Subtotal parathyroidectomy ESRD See above.
Naik, 200414 43, female Surgical debridement, total thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy ESRD, diabetes, morbid obesity, hyperparathyroidism Aggressive wound debridement and excision of necrotic tissue is warranted to prevent disease progression.
Naik, 200414 50, female Surgical debridement, excision of necrotic fat tissue ESRD, diabetes, morbid obesity See above.
Naik, 200414 70, male Surgical debridement, subtotal parathyroidectomy ESRD, diabetes, morbid obesity, coronary artery disease, hyperparathyroidism See above.
