Abstract
There are two types of myocardial calcification: metastatic calcification that is encountered in chronic renal disease patients and dystrophic calcification which develops in injured myocardium. Myocardial infarction, trauma, surgery and myocarditis are the most commonly faced reasons for dystrophic calcification. Here we present a rare case of a patient in whom myocardial calcification was diagnosed after severe sepsis.
