Uremic frost merupakan kelainan kulit yang jarang, karena ditemukan pada pasien gagal ginjal kronik yang belum menjalani hemodialisis. Kelainan ini ditandai dengan lapisan putih kekuningan akibat kristal urea yang mengendap di permukaan kulit. Seorang wanita 44 tahun datang dengan keluhan utama kulit kering, bersisik, dan gatal seluruh tubuh sejak 1 bulan. Pasien baru didiagnosis gagal ginjal kronik. Pada pemeriksaan dermatologi didapatkan makula hiperpigmentasi, berbatas tegas, multipel, ukuran lentikular-plakat, dan krusta putih kekuningan. Tatalaksana dermatologi uremic frost adalah dengan pelembap dan antihistamin oral, pengobatan lebih lanjut untuk penyakit ginjal yang mendasari.

Uremic frost is a rare skin disorder, found in chronic kidney failure patients who have not undergone hemodialysis. This disorder is characterized by yellowish white layer on the skin surface due to urea crystals. A 44-year-old female patient presented with dry, scaly, and itchy skin on the whole body in the last 1 month. The patient has just been diagnosed with chronic kidney failure. Dermatological examination revealed hyperpigmented macules, well-defined, multiple, lenticular-placard size and also a yellowish-white crust. Management in dermatology is with moisturizers and oral antihistamines, further treatment should be given to underlying kidney disease.
