We described a 56-year-old male with the history of gastric cancer and gastrectomy and chemotherapy since one year ego who came to clinic with complaints of nausea, vomiting and paresthesia of extremities which after diagnostic work up, paraneoplastic hypocalcemia was diagnosed. Hypocalcemia following bone metastasis is not a common phenomenon, but in patients with the history of gastric cancer and neurological symptoms (paresthesia, …) evaluation of serum calcium value is recommended.
