Boucher-Neuhauser syndrome associated with hypocalciuric hypercalcemia.

چکیده
A 52-year-old woman was diagnosed as having cerebellar ataxia, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and retinochoroidal degeneration, the so-called, "Boucher-Neuhauser" syndrome proposed by Limber et al (Am J Med Genet 33:409, 1989). In addition, laboratory findings showed the elevation of serum calcium (Ca) levels, low urinary Ca excretion, and exaggerated reabsorption of filtrated Ca (FECa:0.14%), suggesting complication of hypocalciuric hypercalcemia. This is a very rare case of Boucher-Neuhauser syndrome associated with hypocalciuric hypercalcemia.

Marked hypercalcemia in a patient with hypocalciuric hypercalcemia without a mutation in the calcium-sensing receptor gene.
A 60-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with marked hypercalcemia. He had no symptoms that might be caused by hypercalcemia. Plasma concentrations of calcium and intact parathyroid hormone were 15.2 mg/dl and 103 pg/ml, respectively. Radiological examinations revealed no abnormal findings. His calcium-creatinine clearance ratio was calculated to be 0.004, thus he was diagnosed as having ...
متن کاملA novel mutation in the calcium-sensing receptor gene in an Irish pedigree showing familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia: a case report
INTRODUCTION Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by asymptomatic and non-progressive hypercalcemia due to mutations of the calcium-sensing receptor gene. Disorders of calcium metabolism are very common in the elderly, and they can coexist with familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia in affected families. CASE PRESENTATION We describe an Irish ...
متن کاملMultiple endocrine neoplasia phenocopy revealed as a co‐occurring neuroendocrine tumor and familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia type 3
Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia type 3 should be considered as differential diagnosis in patients with suspected primary hyperparathyroidism and/or suspected multiple neoplasia syndrome, as correct diagnosis will spare the patients for going through multiple futile parathyroidectomies and for the worry of being diagnosed with a cancer susceptibility syndrome.

متن کاملFamilial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia with a de novo heterozygous mutation of calcium-sensing receptor
UNLABELLED A de novo heterozygous inactivating mutation of calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) gene typically causes neonatal hyperparathyroidism (NHPT) with moderate hypercalcemia and hyperparathyroid bone disease. We present a case of asymptomatic hypocalciuric hypercalcemia with a de novo heterozygous mutation in CASR, S591C, which is primarily reported to be responsible for NHPT. A 54-year-old ...
