Epidemiology
- rare
Clinical manifestations
- generally asymptomatic
Laboratory
- serum calcium: mild to moderate hypercalcemia
- urine calcium:
- low urinary Ca+2 excretion in distinction to hyperparathyroidism
- 24 hour urine calcium < 200 mg/24 hours
- urine calcium/creatinine ratio < 0.01[1]
- serum creatinine & urine creatinine for calculation of calcium to creatinine clearance ratio [1]
- calcium [urine] (mg/dL) x creatinine [serum] (mg/dL) ---------------------------------------------------- calcium [serum] (mg/dL) x creatinine [urine] (mg/dL)
- a ratio of < 0.01 suggests familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia
- serum PTH is variable, may be inappropriately normal
