Penile calciphylaxis is a serious manifestation of calcifying uremic arteriolopathy, with only a small number of cases reported in the literature. It is rare, characterized by calcification within the walls of small vessels, resulting in ischaemic changes to the skin, and is mainly seen in patients with end-stage renal failure (ESRF). Management of penile calciphylaxis is difficult, with both conservative and surgical approaches advocated for. Due to their comorbidity profile, patients with penile calciphylaxis can present multiple management challenges. We present a case of penile calciphylaxis in a patient with ESRF who was initially managed conservatively, and then underwent circumcision and glansectomy due to a necrotic glans penis and non-resolving penile pain. The patient was spared a partial penectomy and went on to make a full recovery.
