Adult-onset calcification of the lower extremity arteries (CALJA), including the iliac, femoral, and tibial arteries, and hand and foot capsule joints, is an autosomal recessive condition that represents only the second mendelian disorder of isolated calcification (see generalized arterial calcification of infancy (GACI), 208000). Age of onset has been reported as early as the second decade of life, usually involving intense joint pain or calcification in the hands (St. Hilaire et al., 2011). [from OMIM]
