Hypercalcemia is a frequently encountered laboratory finding in endocrinology, warranting accurate clinical and laboratory evaluation to identify its cause. While primary hyperparathyroidism and malignancies represent the most common causes, many other etiologies have been described, including some reports of hypercalcemia secondary to adrenal insufficiency. On the contrary, hypoparathyroidism is a relatively common cause of hypocalcemia, often arising as a complication of thyroid surgery.
