    A Standard Poodle with hypercalcemia and urinary issues was treated for a parathyroid adenoma. Surgical removal resolved the condition, restoring normal urinary concentrating ability.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Endocrinology
    • Nephrology

    Background:

    • Hypercalcemia in dogs can stem from various causes, including primary hyperparathyroidism.
    • Disorders of calcium and phosphate metabolism can impact renal function, particularly urinary concentrating ability.

    Observation:

    • A 6-year-old Standard Poodle presented with hypercalcemia, hypophosphatemia, and a urinary concentrating defect.
    • A parathyroid adenoma was identified in the left caudal parathyroid gland.

    Findings:

    • Surgical excision of the parathyroid adenoma successfully treated the hypercalcemia.
    • Post-operative transient hypocalcemia resolved spontaneously.
    • Renal biopsy excluded mineral deposition in the renal parenchyma.
    • Urinary concentrating ability normalized following surgical intervention.

    Implications:

    • Parathyroid adenomas are a treatable cause of hypercalcemia in dogs.
    • Surgical management can reverse associated renal dysfunction, including urinary concentrating defects.
    • This case highlights the importance of addressing hypercalcemia to restore normal kidney function.
