Altered mental status and hematemesis in a child with hypercalcemia.
[familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia]
Altered
mental

a

is
a
potentially
life-threatening
condition
with
a
broad
differential
including
vascular
,
toxin-mediated
,
infectious
,
metabolic
,
and
traumatic
causes
.
Hypercalcemia
is
a
rare
cause
of
altered
mental
status
in
children
.
We
report
a
case
of
a
13
-
month
-old
boy
with
familial
hypocalciuric
hypercalcemia
who
presented
to
our
emergency
department
with
altered
mental
status
and
hematemesis
.
Familial
hypocalciuric
hypercalcemia
is
a
rare
cause
of
hypercalcemia
that
usually
presents
with
asymptomatic
hypercalcemia
.
This
case
illustrates
the
presentation
of
severe
hypercalcemia
and
reviews
the
initial
management
and
evaluation
of
hypercalcemia
in
children
.
