    Author: Cherry TA, Kauffman RP, Myles TD.
    Journal: J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med; 2002 Nov; 12(5):349-52. PubMed ID: 12607769.
    Abstract:
    A first-trimester primigravid patient presented with hyperemesis and malaise. Work-up was consistent with primary hyperparathryoidism. During acute treatment, she developed generalized motor seizures considered to be secondary to hypercalcemia. Evaluation and treatment of women with primary hyperparathyroidism and hypercalcemia are reviewed, and the pathogenesis of seizures associated with hypercalcemia is discussed.
