A de novo heterozygous CASR mutation that is responsible for NHPT may also present in individuals with asymptomatic hypocalciuric hypercalcemia. [edmcasereports.com]
In addition, a 22-year-old man presented with hypercalcemia, fatigue, and generalized rib pain, and a 52-year-old woman who had an approximately 20-year history of hypercalcemia presented with headaches, abdominal pain, vomiting, fatigue, and musculoskeletal [nejm.org]

Last updated May 3, 2018 Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia (ADH) is a genetic disorder that is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, where one defective copy of either affected gene can cause the disorder if present in all the cells. [dovemed.com]
Disorders of the parathyroid glands most commonly present with abnormalities of serum calcium. [aafp.org]
Entire Body System
- Weakness
The symptoms frequently come on slowly and are usually subtle, such as a feeling of weakness or fatigue, or aches and pains. [healthguidance.org]
HHC is usually asymptomatic but in some cases: fatigue, weakness, excessive thirst and concentration problems have been reported. Some adults present also pancreatitis, chondrocalcinosis and premature vascular calcification. [iofbonehealth.org]
Affected individuals may also have fatigue, weakness, mental disturbance, and polydipsia/polyuria. [genedx.com]
FHH is usually asymptomatic but rarely symptoms of fatigue, weakness, excessive thirst and concentration problems are experienced. Some adults suffer from relapsing pancreatitis, chondrocalcinosis and premature vascular calcification. [orpha.net]
- Falling
The data clearly shows that patients with primary hyperparathyroidism don't naturally fall with a nice grouping above the number 100. They fall with a nice grouping from way down around 20 to way up to 1000 (as seen in the first graph). [parathyroid.com]
Serum calcium begins to decrease in 2 to 4 h and falls to near-normal within 24 h. [merckmanuals.com]
The post-operative PTH level should fall by >50% into the normal range. In patients who do not meet any criteria for surgery, a conservative, non-surgical approach is acceptable. [endocrinologyadvisor.com]
Conversely, when the serum calcium concentration falls, parathyroid hormone secretion is stimulated, resulting in an increase in serum calcium. 23 24 CaRS The calcium-sensing receptor is a G-protein–coupled receptor that is highly expressed in parathyroid [slideplayer.com]
This falls outside of the “minimally invasive” algorithm. We only perform an ultrasound of the neck, mainly to look for thyroid gland pathology that may need to be addressed. [entokey.com]

Research indicates that PHPT may be associated with other disorders like multiple endocrine neoplasia, obesity, type 2 diabetes, anemia and monoclonal gammopathy, although some studies are conflicting for some disorders. [scorgloballifeamericas.com]
Multiple myeloma is suggested by simultaneous anemia, azotemia, and hypercalcemia or by the presence of a monoclonal gammopathy. Myeloma is confirmed by bone marrow examination. [merckmanuals.com]

Prognosis
(Outcomes/Resolutions) The prognosis of Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia is reported to be dictated by the type and severity of symptoms in the affected individuals Individuals with mild signs and symptoms of ADH have better prognosis than those with severe [dovemed.com]
Prognosis Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia is a benign disease. Complications Hypercalcemia can cause pancreatitis and chondrocalcinosis. Lipomas are frequent too. Bibliography Aida, K., Koishi, S., Inoue, M., Nakazato, M., Tawata, M., Onaya, T. [renaltube.com]
Prognosis FHH does not lower life expectancy and has a benign, stable course. The documents contained in this web site are presented for information purposes only. [orpha.net]
Quite often, hypercalcemia is a late finding in malignancy, and it often portends a poor prognosis. If the PTHrP is not elevated, physicians turn to the Vitamin D levels in the evaluation of hypercalcemia. [scorgloballifeamericas.com]
Etiology
Review Summary Nature Reviews Nephrology 2008年2月1日 Hereditary etiologies of hypomagnesemia PubMedおよびOvidデータベースを用いて文献検索を実施した。 [natureasia.com]
Etiology There are 3 genetic types of FHH based on chromosome location. FHH type 1 accounts for 65% of cases and is due to inactivating mutations in the CASR gene, localized to 3q21.1. This gene encodes the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). [orpha.net]
The etiology of MEN1 syndrome is menin inactivation. [hormones.gr]
Typically, diagnosis is made in the pursuit of uncovering the etiology of hypercalcemia. Calcium levels are often in the high normal range or slightly elevated. [en.wikipedia.org]

Prevention

The mainstay for treatment in patients with MEN 2, with early identification of germ-line mutations in the RET gene, is prophylactic thyroidectomy to prevent medullary thyroid carcinoma. [entokey.com]
Measures used for treatment can also be used for prevention. One aim is to prevent hyperphosphatemia. Treatment combines dietary phosphate restriction and phosphate binding agents, such as calcium carbonate or sevelamer. [merckmanuals.com]
