    Hypercalcemia, often asymptomatic, requires prompt detection through serum calcium analysis. Identifying and treating underlying causes, like primary hyperparathyroidism, is crucial for patient recovery.

    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Nephrology
    • Clinical Medicine

    Context:

    • Hypercalcemia is a common clinical finding with diverse etiologies.
    • Routine serum calcium analysis aids early detection.
    • Clinical presentation varies with severity and onset rate, often being asymptomatic.

    Purpose:

    • To review the causes, mechanisms, and diagnostic approaches to hypercalcemia.
    • To highlight the role of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and vitamin D.
    • To discuss management strategies for various hypercalcemic conditions.

    Summary:

    • Iatrogenic causes (vitamin D, thiazides, milk-alkali syndrome) must be excluded first.
    • Primary hyperparathyroidism is the most common non-neoplastic cause, often presenting with nephrolithiasis or asymptomatically.

  • Diagnostic tools include biochemical profiling, ultrasound, and CT scans; surgical exploration may be needed.
  • Other causes include sarcoidosis, granulomatosis, thyrotoxicosis, immobilization, and familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia.

    • Impact:

    • Understanding these diverse causes facilitates accurate diagnosis and timely intervention.
    • Recognition of potentially reversible causes improves patient outcomes.
    • This review provides a comprehensive overview for clinicians managing hypercalcemia.
