Severe hypercalcaemia from ectopic intact parathyroid hormone secretion treated with continuous renal replacement therapy in a patient with two malignancies

We present a 61-year-old Caucasian woman with endometroid carcinoma as well as a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma who developed severe hypercalcaemia in the setting of an elevated intact parathyroid hormone. The patient was hospitalised twice for her condition. During her first hospitalisation,...

description We present a 61-year-old Caucasian woman with endometroid carcinoma as well as a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma who developed severe hypercalcaemia in the setting of an elevated intact parathyroid hormone. The patient was hospitalised twice for her condition. During her first hospitalisation, she was diagnosed with an endometroid carcinoma and hypercalcaemia. With medical management, she had a normal calcium level on discharge. She presented 3 weeks later with hypercalcaemia and encephalopathy. This time her hypercalcaemia was refractory to medical management, and required continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) to normalise her serum calcium. Lung biopsy revealed a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, suspicious for pancreatic primary. Due to her poor prognosis, rapid elevation of calcium with each attempt to discontinue CRRT, and the poor options for treatment of her cancers, she elected to pursue hospice care.
