Description
Amit Das, Jorge Silva, Kana Miyata, John Edwards, and Ezequiel Bellorin-Font report a rare case of high blood calcium. The case stems from rhabdomyolysis, a breakdown of muscle that spills cell contents into the blood. Low calcium is common early in this illness. High calcium can strike later, while the kidneys heal, and it is rare but grave.
Their patient was a man aged thirty-six whose kidneys had failed from muscle breakdown. As he healed, his blood calcium rose high and stayed high. Usual care with loop drugs, low-calcium dialysis, and calcitonin did not bring it down. The team stresses close checks of calcium through the healing phase and prompt, careful care when levels climb.
