Primary oxalosis should be considered in patients with multisystem disease of the kidneys, heart, peripheral vasculature, and skin. Crystalline deposits can lead to nephrolithiasis with kidney failure, complete heart block, peripheral vasospasm, and livedo reticularis, as in our patient. Crystals we...
