Elastic tissue in the body becomes mineralized; that is, calcium and other minerals are deposited in the tissue. This can result in changes in the skin, eyes, cardiovascular system, and gastrointestinal system. Clinicians first recognized PXE more than 100 years ago. Researchers have made a number of significant advances in the past few years. Symptoms It is possible to have PXE and not have any apparent skin lesions. In some individuals, careful examination of the skin by a dermatologist does not reveal any visible sign of lesions, but a positive biopsy indicates the diagnosis of PXE. Thus, until a genetic test is available, it is not always possible to make a definite determination of the presence of PXE.

Introduction Reproduction Pregnancy During Pregnancy ... Glossary A-Z Childhood Illness Bacteria Virus Cancer Gastrointestinal ... Mental Health Musculoskeletal Disorders: Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum Description Pseudoxanthoma elasticum ( PXE ) is a hereditary connective tissue disorder affecting the skin, eyes, and blood vessels. PXE is a rare disease. Its incidence has been estimated at 1 in 25,000-50,000. Symptoms and Signs PXE affects the skin and eyes primarily. Skin changes are sometimes the first indication that a person has pseudoxanthoma elasticum PXE. The affected individual might notice small bumps, or lesions, on the skin. Typically, these skin changes appear first on the sides of the neck and then progress to other parts of the body, but other sites may be involved. The skin lesions are do not generally cause any problems. It is thought that most affected individuals, particularly those who have had PXE for more than 10 years, develop angioid streaks associated with calcification (build up of calcium) of elastin-rich tissues in the eye. Angioid streaks do not necessarily affect vision, however further changes to the eye may cause loss in central vision. A person with PXE rarely, if ever, becomes totally blind, however they may lose central vision to the extent that they become legally blind, and able to see only through peripheral vision. Every individual affected by PXE should have an annual examination by an ophthalmologist (eye doctor).

53. Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum INCIDENCE, Rare. DISEASE ASSOCIATIONS, CHARACTERIZATION. Characterization of pseudoxanthoma elasticumlike lesions in the skin of patients with beta-thalassemia. http://www.thedoctorsdoctor.com/diseases/pxe.htm

Background This is an inherited disorder of connective tissue involving the elastic tissue fibers. There are at least four variants. The classic skin changes usually arise by the second decade and are closely set yellowship papules occurring in the flexural creases especially in the neck and axillae, with decreasing involvement in the groins, periumbilical area, cubital and popliteal fossae, and oral cavity. These skin lesions are wrinkled and thickened and evolve into lax and redundant skin. The characteristic eye changes consist of angioid streaks and choroidoretinitis which may progress to blindness. In tissue sections, the calcium content is greatly increased leading to calcification of the elastic fibers and arteries of the eyes. Other vascular changes may lead to hypertension, cerebrovascular accidents, and gastrointestinal hemorrhage. The cause is unknown. Cultured fibroblasts from afflicted patients release a proteolytic substance which may damage the elastin in the elastic fibers leading to calcificaiton. An acquired variant may be several diseases and has been associated with exposure to calcium salts and obese patients, usually multiparous black women. These latter patients may also develop perforation. Unlike the inherited form, there is an absence of extra-cutaneous disease.
