PubMedID- 21209801 Described two cases of sarcoidosis with hypercalcemia and elevated pthrp.
PubMedID- 21873732 The mechanism of hypercalcaemia in sarcoidosis is poorly understood but is thought to involve parathyroid hormone-independent 1-hydroxylation of 25-hydroxyvitamin d within sarcoid lesions.
PubMedID- 23907968 sarcoidosis as a cause of unappreciated hypercalcaemia in a patient with end-stage renal disease on peritoneal dialysis.
PubMedID- 25988038 sarcoidosis presenting with hypercalcaemia following withdrawal of long-term immunosuppression in renal transplantation.
PubMedID- 22870420 A diagnosis of sarcoidosis with severe hypercalcemia induced by interferon therapy was made.
PubMedID- 24663253 hypercalcemia in sarcoidosis is due to three mechanistic reasons: (1) systemic conversion of 25-hydroxyvitamin d to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin d by the enzyme 1-alpha hydroxylase produced by activated monocyte/macrophage system, (2) production of parathormone-related peptide (pthrp) by the sarcoid granuloma, (3) tissue-level conversion of 25-hydroxyvitamin d to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin d by 1-alphahydroxylase produced by local monocyte/macrophage system in the sarcoid granuloma.
PubMedID- 26029574 Although the emc and sarcoidosis with associated hypercalcemia may have been coincidental in our case, the fact that both lymphadenopathy and hypercalcemia resolved after resection of the primary tumor suggests a more intimate relationship.
PubMedID- 24246340 Objective: to report an uncommon cause of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin d (1,25[oh]2d)-mediated hypercalcemia associated with splenic sarcoidosis and illustrate the evaluation and potential role of fluorodeoxyglucose (fdg) positron emission tomography (pet)/computed tomography (ct) in such patients.
PubMedID- 24753153 Overproduction of 1alpha-hydroxylase is held responsible for the development of hypercalcemia in sarcoidosis patients.
PubMedID- 24157819 The mechanism of hypercalcaemia in sarcoidosis is well described.
