Breast Adenocarcinoma and Cold Agglutinin Disease: A Paraneoplastic Syndrome.

Department of Oncology, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, USA.
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is a disorder that is characterized by the destruction of red blood cells through an autoimmune process, such as temperature-dependent antibodies. The two predominant types, cold agglutinin and warm agglutinin disease, typically possess different underlying etiologies. Prompt recognition and workup of autoimmune hemolytic anemia should be prioritized to potentially uncover any underlying primary cause, such as malignancy.

Article Synopsis
- A female neonate born to consanguineous parents exhibited severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT) after a C-section, showing signs of respiratory distress and skeletal abnormalities following birth.
- Diagnostic challenges included elevated calcium levels and a homozygous variant in the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) gene, leading to the establishment of NSHPT.
- Management of NSHPT is critical due to its high mortality risk; treatment options typically involve addressing the high calcium levels and associated metabolic issues.
Case report: Ectopic production of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) by malignoma mimicking primary hyperparathyroidism.

Department of Nephrology, St. Georg Hospital, Leipzig, Germany.
Background: Malignant hypercalcemia is usually caused by osteolytic processes of metastases, production of parathormone-related peptide, or secretion of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. Ectopic PTH (parathyroid hormone) production by malignancy is very unusual.
Methods: Case report and review of the literature.

Surgery is the preferred treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), but the presence of MIBI-avid thyroid nodules can complicate the localization of parathyroid adenoma (PA). In this case report, we discuss the role of imaging in localizing PA in a patient with concurrent thyroid nodules. A 49-year-old female presented with hypercalcemia and elevated parathyroid hormone levels.

Hypercalcemia is a common metabolic complication associated with malignancies, particularly in solid tumors, such as lung and breast cancers. However, its occurrence in hematologic malignancies, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), is rare. The pathophysiology of hypercalcemia in lymphomas is often related to the secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH)-related peptide (PTHrP).
