Differentials

Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia should be differentiated from other causes of hypercalcemia. Causes of hypercalcemia include:

Parathyroid-related

Hyperparathyroidism

-Primary hyperparathyroidism

-Secondary hyperparathyroidism

-Tertiary hyperparathyroidism

Non-parathyroid related

-Malignancy

-Humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy

-Osteolytic tumors

-Production of calcitriol by tumors

-Ectopic parathyroid hormone production

Medication-induced

-Thiazide diuretics

-Lithium

Other

-Nutritional

-Milk-alkali syndrome

-Vitamin D toxicity

-Granulomatous disease

-Sarcoidosis

-Surgical

-Immobilization


Differential diagnosis of Familial Hypocalciuric Hypercalcemia on the basis of hypercalcemia
Disorder Mechanism of hypercalcemia Clinical features Laboratory findings Imaging & diagnostic modalities
PTH Calcium Phosphate Other findings
Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia
  • This is a genetic disorder caused my mutation in calcium-sensing receptor gene.
  • This is a benign condition and does not require treatment.
Normal/↑ Normal/↑ --
  • Calcium/creatinine clearance ratio
Hyperparathyroidism Primary hyperparathyroidism Increase in secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) from a primary process in parathyroid gland. Parathyroid hormone causes increase in serum calcium.
  • Usually asymptomatic
  • Hypercalcemia detected on routine biochemical panel
↓/Normal Normal/↑ calcitriol Findings of bone resorption:
  • X-ray
  • DXA

Preoperative localization of hyperfunctioning parathyroid gland:

  • Non-Invasive
    • Tc-99m sestamibi scintigraphy
    • Neck ultrasound
    • 4D-CT
    • SPET(P-SPECT)
    • PET
    • MRI
  • Invasive:
    • Super sensitive venous sampling
    • Selective arteriography
    • Angiography

Predicting post-operative success:

  • Intraoperative parathyroid hormone monitoring
Secondary hyperparathyroidism Increase in secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) from a secondary process. Parathyroid hormone causes increase in serum calcium.
  • May present with history of:
    • Chronic renal failure
    • Vitamin D deficiency
↓/Normal --
Tertiary hyperparathyroidism Continuous elevation of parathyroid hormone (PTH) even after successful treatment of the secondary cause of elevated parathyroid hormone. Parathyroid hormone causes increase in serum calcium.
  • Usually present with history of:
    • Kidney transplant
  • Usually hyperplasia of all four parathyroid glands
--
Malignancy[1] Humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy[2][3][4] Tumor cells secretes parathyroid hormone related protein (PTHrP) which has similar action as parathyroid hormone.
  • Most common cause of malignancy related hypercalcemia.
  • Usually present in solid tumors
-- ↓/Normal ↑ PTHrP

Normal/↑ calcitriol

  • Chest X-ray
  • CT scan
  • MRI
Osteolytic tumors Multiple myeloma produces osteolysis of bones causing hypercalcemia. Osteolytic metastasis can cause bone resorption causing hypercalcemia.
  • Most commonly present in multiple myeloma and breast cancer.
-- --
  • DXA
  • X-ray
  • Mammography
  • Ultrasound
  • ESR
  • Serum protein electrophoresis
Production of calcitirol Some tumors has ectopic activity of 1-alpha-hydroxylase leading to increased production of calcitriol. Calcitriol is active form of vitamin D and causes hypercalcemia.
  • Most commonly present in lymphomas and in some ovarian germ cell tumors.
-- -- ↑ Calcitriol
  • CT scan
  • MRI
Ectopic parathyroid hormone[5] Some tumors leads to ectopic production of parathyroid hormone.
  • In rare instances, small cell carcinoma of lung may produce hypercalcemia by this process.
↓/Normal Normal/↑ Calcitriol
  • Chest X-ray
  • CT scan
  • MRI
Medication induced Lithium[6] Lithium lowers urinary calcium and causes hypercalcemia. Lithium has been reported to cause an increase in parathyroid hormones and enlargement if parathyroid gland after weeks to months of therapy.
  • History of mood disorder
-- --
  • Lithium levels
Thiazide diuretics Thiazide diuretics lowers urinary calcium excretion and causes hypercalcemia
  • History of cardiac disorder
  • Rarely causes hypercalcemia
-- -- -- --
Nutritional Milk-alkali syndrome Hypercalcemia is be caused by high intake of calcium carbonate
  • History of
    • High milk intake
    • Excess calcium intake for treating:
      • Osteoporosis
      • Dyspepsia
  • May lead to metabolic alkalosis and renal insufficiency.
-- -- --
  • Renal function test
Vitamin D toxicity Excess vitamin D causes increased absorption of calcium from intestine causing hypercalcemia.
  • History of:
    • Excess intake vitamin D
    • Excess milk fortified with vitamin D[7]
    • Topical application of vitamin D analogue analogue calcipotriol[8]
-- -- ↑ Vitamin D (calcidiol and/or calcitriol) --
Granulomatous disease Sarcoidosis[9] Hypercalcemia is causes by endogeous production of calcitriol by disease-activated macrophages.
  • History of:
    • Cough
    • Dyspnea
    • Chest pain
    • Tiredness or weakness
    • Fever
    • Weight loss
-- --
  • ↑ Calcitriol
  • ↑ ACE levels
  • Chest X-ray
  • Biopsy
