Hypercalcemia and elevated serum parathyroid hormone level in association with rhabdomyosarcoma
Arch Pathol Lab Med.
1984 Sep.
Abstract
Pseudohyperparathyroidism to sarcomas is very rare. A 16-year-old boy had a rhabdomyosarcoma and severe hypercalcemia associated with an elevated serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) level and osteolytic bone metastases. The four parathyroid glands were normal. Both the hypercalcemia and the serum PTH level responded to chemotherapy.
