Transient hypercalcaemia following acute renal failure.

Immobilization hypercalcaemia due to low bone formation

A young man developed acute renal failure and hypercalcaemia following severe burns. The hypercalcaemia was initially controlled by haemodialysis, but it persisted after return of renal function. Plasma PTH was inappropriately elevated, but the nephrogenous cyclic adenosine monophosphate level was low; thus the PTH was probably not biologically active, and may have been artefactually elevated b...

Transient diplopia after parathyroidectomy for hyperparathyroidism in chronic haemodialysed patients.

An increase in serum levels of the parathyroid hormone (PTH) and hyperplasia of the parathyroid glands have been observed to occur in the early stages of chronic kidney disease with decreased renal function, in an attempt to maintain serum calcium within the normal range [1]. However, this secondary hyperparathyroidism becomes maladaptive when chronic renal failure progresses to end-stage renal...

Acute renal failure following brake fluid poisoning

Brake fluid is a mixture of different Glycol derivatives which are poisoning and their ingestion triggers significant CNS symptoms, severe metabolic acidosis, cardiac, pulmonary, and renal failure. Here in this study, a case is reported who had been ingested 150mL of brake fluid for suicidal attempt.
