Magnesium depletion and hypocalcaemia after removal of parathyroid carcinoma
Scottish Medical Journal
|January 1, 1976
Abstract:
A case of parathyroid carcinoma is described which presented with severe bone disease, complicated after parathyroidectomy by symptomatic hypocalcaemia and magnesium deficiency, both of which responded dramatically to the administration of magnesium. Urinary cyclic AMP assays were used to monitor parathyroid activity.
