Phaeochromocytoma and hypercalcaemia
Abstract
An example of possible pseudohyperparathyroidism associated with a non-endocrine benign tumour is reported. Some of the pertinent factors contributing to hypercalcaemia under these circumstances are reviewed, with particular reference to ectopic hyperparathyroidism and catecholamine-induced endogenous hyperparathyroidism.
