Hypercalcaemia and hypokalaemia in tuberculosis.
In two patients with extensive pulmonary tuberculosis who developed hypercalcaemia and hypokalaemia the hypercalcaemia appeared related to the use of small doses of vitamin D, which suggested patients with tuberculosis were hypersensitive to vitamin D. They were thus similar to patients with sarcoidosis, and it is interesting that the Kveim test result was positive in both cases. The hypercalca...
متن کاملRandomised controlled trial of vitamin D supplementation in sarcoidosis
OBJECTIVES The role vitamin D intake/production plays in sarcoidosis-associated hypercalcaemia is uncertain. However, authoritative reviews have recommended avoiding sunlight exposure and vitamin D supplements, which might lead to adverse skeletal outcomes from vitamin D insufficiency. We investigated the effects of vitamin D supplementation on surrogate measures of skeletal health in patients ...
متن کاملIntermittent hypercalcaemia and vitamin D sensitivity in Hodgkin's disease.
A patient with Hodgkin's disease spontaneously developed steroid-responsive hypercalcaemia during two consecutive summers. Administration of 3000 U/day of vitamin D, while he was normocalcaemic, caused a sharp increase in serum 1,25(OH)2D3 (from 59 pg/ml to 142 pg/ml) and subsequently hypercalcaemia while serum 25(OH)D3 rose moderately within the normal range (from 2.8 ng/ml to 10 ng/ml). Durin...
متن کاملCalcium Metabolism in Sarcoidosis.
Fifteen patients with hypercalcaemia and sarcoidosis have been studied. Twelve were males of average age 34; the three females averaged 53. Cases included widely varying sarcoid manifestations , but five gave a clear history of rather excessive ingestion of low-dosage vitamin D preparations. The data confirm that in most cases there is an undue sensitivity to all the actions of vitamin D, the s...
متن کاملIncreased disease activity in a patient with sarcoidosis after high dose interleukin 2 treatment for metastatic renal cancer.
Sarcoidosis is a disease of unknown aetiology in which cytokines such as interleukin 2 (IL-2) are thought to play an important role. We present the case history of a 48 year old man with sarcoidosis who received treatment with high dose IL-2 for metastatic renal cell cancer, following which he developed hypercalcaemia characterised by a raised level of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25-(OH)2-D3), a...
