BACKGROUND Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is thought to be a metabolic disorder resulting from mutations in the gene encoding the cellular transporter, ABCC6, which is primarily expressed in liver and kidney. We encountered 3 patients who developed clinical and histopathological evidence of PXE after liver transplantation, suggesting that PXE could have been acquired from the transplanted organ...
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by the mineralization of connective tissues in the body. Primary manifestation of PXE occurs in the tissues of the skin, eyes, and cardiovascular system. PXE is primarily caused by mutations in the ABCC6 gene. The ABCC6 gene encodes the trans-membrane protein ABCC6, which is highly expressed in the kidneys and liver...
Purpose To quantify lipofuscin-associated fundus autofluorescence in patients with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), a model disease for Bruch's membrane pathology. Methods In this prospective, monocenter, cross-sectional case-control study, 49 patients with PXE (mean age: 46 years, range 18-62) underwent quantitative fundus autofluorescence (qAF) imaging with a modified scanning laser ophthalm...
The incidence of ischemic stroke is increased in patients with PXE. In a 17-year follow-up study involving 100 patients with PXE, eight patients were found to have brain stroke.[2] The cause of brain stroke in PXE is small vessel disease rather than large vessel occlusion.[3] Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, rather than CT, would have been ideal to show the changes of small vessel...
Long term D-penicillamine therapy, especially when used to treat Wilson's disease has been shown to cause elastosis perforans serpiginosa, pseudoxanthoma elasticum perforans and other degenerative dermatoses. We report a 23-year-old male patient who presented with multiple firm papules, nodules over the neck, axillae, front of elbows for five years. He was a known case of Wilson's disease on lo...
