Hypercalcemia

4.9/5 (15433 ratings)

Description:People with high blood calcium, also called hypercalcemia, have above-normal levels of calcium in their blood. Calcium is a mineral found mostly in your bones, where it builds and maintains bone strength. A small amount of calcium is also found in muscle and blood cells, where it plays several important roles: helps muscles contract, helps nerves and the brain work properly and helps regulate your heart rhythm and blood pressure. High blood calcium often does not cause any health problems. But over time, some causes of high blood calcium can lead to osteoporosis (thinning of the bones) and kidney stones. Very high blood calcium can cause more serious problems, including kidney failure, heart rhythm abnormalities, mental confusion, and even coma. Hypercalcaemia occurs in 10-20% of all patients with cancer. The cancers that most commonly cause hypercalcaemia include lung, breast, head and neck, and renal tumours, as well as multiple myeloma and lymphoma. Hypercalcaemia is an uncommon problem. Primary hyperparathyroidism is the most common cause. It affects mainly postmenopausal women. The incidence rate in the United Kingdom is 30 per 100,000.Hypercalcaemia is the most frequently encountered endocrine/electrolyte disorder in malignancy-associated hospitalised patients. Its incidence is 15 per 100,000 person-years. The incidence in children is unknown but is thought to be even less common than in adults.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
