In this report, we present a 57-year-old man with chronic bilateral lower extremity wounds from nonuremic calciphylaxis, which were successfully reconstructed using a piscine-derived acellular dermal matrix. The acellular dermal matrix incorporated quickly, providing a wound bed that was amenable to skin grafting. We demonstrate that this is an effective off-the-shelf solution for these chronic wounds, resulting in pain reduction and complete closure of the wounds, allowing the patient to return to his previous baseline activities, and improving his quality of life.
