Hypercalcaemia after tamoxifen for breast cancer: a sign of tumour response?

Hypocalcaemic response to streptomycin in malignant hypercalcaemia.

Introduction Malignant hypercalcaemia (pseudohyperparathyroidism) is occasionally associated with primary hepatocellular carcinoma (PHC) or cholangio carcinoma which has not metastasized to bone (Becker, Sternberg and Kalser, 1963; Keller, Goldschneider and Lafferty, 1965; Knill-Jones et al., 1970).
