  • Title: [Hyperparathyroidism masked by osteomalacia. Is vitamin D administration in every case of osteomalacia problem-free?].
    Author: Zuber M, Löliger M, Boner H, Haas HG.
    Journal: Schweiz Med Wochenschr; 1986 May 10; 116(19):642-7. PubMed ID: 3715442.
    Abstract:
    In a 71-year-old patient with osteomalacia, masked primary hyperparathyroidism was detected by vitamin D therapy for hypercalcemia. Surgery revealed a parathyroid tumor. Interpretation of total plasma calcium may be difficult unless the 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels are outside the normal range.
