Fine-tuned continuous renal replacement therapy with calcium-free dialysate to manage severe hypercalcemia refractory to medical and intermittent hemodialysis
AbstractMalignancy-related hypercalcemia is a leading cause of hypercalcemia among hospitalized patients that carries poor prognosis. Parathyroid carcinoma is a rare form of primary hyperparathyroidism that may be associated with PTH dependent hypercalcemia. Severe hypercalcemia is life-threatening and may require management in an intensive care unit by means of medical therapy consisting of volume expansion, loop diuretics, cinacalcet, calcitonin and bisphosphonates. Renal replacement therapy such as intermittent hemodialysis has been successfully used among patients with severe hypercalcemia who become refractory to medi...

A systematic review of the pharmacotherapy of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in grades 3-5 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
CONCLUSIONS: Calcifediol ER, paricalcitol, and cinacalcet significantly decreased the iPTH level in the patients under study. Paricalcitol increased the serum calcium concentration the most of all the drugs under analysis. It is noteworthy that only cinacalcet does not carry the risk of hypercalcemia.PMID:35049000 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202201_27773

The use of cinacalcet after pediatric renal transplantation: an international CERTAIN Registry analysis
ConclusionsThis pilot study suggests that cinacalcet as off-label therapy for SHPT after pediatric RTx is efficacious in controlling post-transplant SHPT with acceptable tolerability. Continuing cinacalcet even with normal PTH can lead to dangerous life-threatening hypocalcemia. Therefore, at each subsequent visit, the need to continue cinacalcet must be assessed.

Management of Primary Hyperparathyroidism With Severe Hypercalcemia During the COVID-19 Pandemic
This article presents a literature review and discussion of the pharmacologic management of PHPT and severe hypercalcemia, which can be used as a temporary measure during the COVID-19 pandemic until parathyroidectomy can be performed safely.METHODS: This narrative review was conducted by searching literature on the PubMed, Medline, and Google Scholar databases using the terms primary hyperparathyroidism, hypercalcemia, cinacalcet, bisphosphonates, denosumab, vitamin D, raloxifene, hormone replacement therapy, coronavirus, and COVID-19.FINDINGS: Appropriate monitoring and remote medical follow-up of these patients are essen...
