A genetic disorder should be suspected in patients with hypercalcemia, notably those who are young; have family members with hypercalcemia; or have had a tumor of the endocrine pancreas, thyroid, pituitary, adrenal gland, or jaw bone. All forms of hypercalcemia should be interpreted according to the serum level of parathyroid hormone (PTH).

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2007
Laboratory reports of elevated serum calcium are common in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Distinguishing between measurements likely to cause symptoms and that require correction from those that are benign poses a challenge to the physician. Calcium stores, serum measurement, and regulation are reviewed as an introduction to understanding the ...

ImportanceHypercalcemia affects approximately 1% of the worldwide population. Mild hypercalcemia, defined as total calcium of less than 12 mg/dL (<3 mmol/L) or ionized calcium of 5.6 to 8.0 mg/dL (1.4-2 mmol/L), is usually asymptomatic but may be associated with constitutional symptoms such as fatigue and constipation in approximately 20% of

Disease-a-Month, 1988
The approach to the patient with hypercalcemia requires a solid understanding of the principles of calcium homeostasis, knowledge of its differential diagnosis and the associated pathophysiologies, and the clinical judgment to know when and how to administer appropriate therapy.

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1989
Elevated serum calcium occurs relatively uncommonly in dogs and rarely in cats. Hypercalcemia can serve as a marker of disease that enables diagnosis but may also contribute to development of lesions and the clinical signs of disease. Specific clinical signs do not necessarily accompany hypercalcemia, and its presence will frequently be unsuspected ...

Postgraduate Medicine, 1979
Hypercalcemia is most commonly seen in normal infants as the result of normal rapid bone growth. The most common causative diseases are malignant disease and hyperparathyroidism. A variety of pharmacologic agents, especially vitamin D and its metabolites and thiazide diuretics, can elevate serum calcium levels.

Postgraduate Medicine, 1979
Hypercalcemia calls first for supportive measures, eg, adequate hydration, movement or mobilization of the patient to the greatest amount tolerated, and reevaluation of drugs being taken. When immediate lowering of the serum calcium level is not clinically mandatory, oral administration of furosemide, corticosteroid, or phosphorus should be considered.

Annual Review of Medicine, 1987
Malignancy-associated hypercalcemia is a common and important clinical problem. Two major pathogenic mechanisms appear to be operative in this disorder: local osteolytic hypercalcemia and humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy. The clinical and biochemical features that distinguish these two processes are reviewed.
