Gastrointestinal stromal tumours are a rare form of intra-abdominal neoplasm derived from mesenchymal tissue, typically presenting with abdominal pain, anaemia or bleeding into the bowel or abdominal cavity. Hypercalcaemia is an unusual complication, having been documented in only seven previous patients, all of whom had advanced metastatic disease. We present a case of treatment-resistant hypercalcaemia in a patient with non-metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumour, which resolved following excision of the tumour.
胃肠道间质瘤是一种罕见的源自间叶组织的腹腔内肿瘤,通常表现为腹痛、贫血或肠道或腹腔内出血。高钙血症是一种不常见的并发症,此前仅有7例患者有记录,所有这些患者均患有晚期转移性疾病。我们报告一例非转移性胃肠道间质瘤患者出现难治性高钙血症,肿瘤切除后高钙血症得以缓解。
