  • Title: Hypophosphatemia-induced hypercalcemia during acute renal failure.
    Author: Gagnon RF, Pajel P, Kaye M.
    Journal: Clin Exp Dial Apheresis; 1983; 7(3):207-18. PubMed ID: 6671351.
    Abstract:
    A case of hypophosphatemia-induced hypercalcemia during post-traumatic acute renal failure is described. Proposed causes for the hypophosphatemia include changes in tissue distribution of phosphate associated with hyperalimentation and phosphate losses during hemodialysis. In the absence of hyperparathyroidism the hypercalcemia as well as changes in osteoclast morphology found on bone biopsy are ascribed to a direct effect of hypophosphatemia on bone.
