Cinacalcet Treatment in an Adolescent With Concurrent 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome and Familial Hypocalciuric Hypercalcemia Type 3 Caused by AP2S1 Mutation.

Context: The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (DS) is a common multiple anomaly syndrome in which typical features include congenital heart defects, facial dysmorphism, and palatal anomalies. Hypocalcemia due to hypoparathyroidism is a common endocrine manifestation resulting from variable parathyroid hypoplasia, but hypercalcemia has not previously been reported in 22q11.

Codon Arg15 mutations of the AP2S1 gene: common occurrence in familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia cases negative for calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) mutations.

Context: Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) is an autosomal dominant disorder with three known subtypes: FHH1, FHH2, and FHH3. About 65% of FHH cases are FHH1, caused by inactivating mutations of the calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) gene. FHH3 was recently found to be caused by codon Arg15 (p.
