Immobilisation hypercalcaemia complicating polyneuropathy in adolescent boys.

Hypercalcaemia in osteogenesis imperfecta treated with pamidronate.

The response to the bisphosphonate, pamidronate, is reported in a child with osteogenesis imperfecta who had recurrent symptomatic hypercalcaemia after immobilisation following fractures. Oral clodronate was effective in the prevention of immobilisation hypercalcaemia in the same child. The bisphosphonates may have other roles in osteogenesis imperfecta by decreasing bone turnover.

Immobilisation hypercalcaemia in adults and treatment with clodronate.

Fatal cardiovascular instability secondary to hypercalcaemia and intracellular calcium deposition complicating T-cell leukaemia-lymphoma.

Adult T-cell leukaemia-lymphoma is a rare haematological malignancy, which can cause severe hypercalcaemia and metastatic calcification resulting in life-threatening arrhythmias.

Hypercalcaemia due to immobilization of a patient with Paget's disease of bone.

A man with Paget's disease of bone was admitted with a fractured neck of femur. On admission he was normocalcaemic, but with immobilization he rapidly became hypercalcaemic, despite a normal diet and no medication. The hypercalcaemia responded to calcitonin. Although hypercalcaemia is often quoted as complicating the immobilization of such patients, well documented uncomplicated cases have rare...
