Calciphylaxis or calcific uremic arteriolopathy is a rare entity associated with the end-stage renal disease that presents with necrotic cutaneous lesions that may require surgical management. Extracutaneous manifestations of calciphylaxis including visceral ischemia have been reported; however, surgical intervention for colonic ischemia has only been reported twice. We report a 49-year-old male with calciphylaxis who subsequently developed Ogilvie’s syndrome complicated by perforation requiring total abdominal colectomy with end ileostomy. Surgeons treating this disease should have a heightened awareness of the extracutaneous sequelae of calciphylaxis.
