Hypercalcemia was identified in a canine patient with a benign vaginal leiomyoma. Subsequent diagnostic workup did not reveal hypercalcemia of malignancy. Surgical resection of the leiomyoma resulted in a conversion to normocalcemic status. Although rare, hypercalcemia of benignancy should be considered in a patient in which hypercalcemia is identified via clinical pathology.
在一只患有良性阴道平滑肌瘤的犬类患者中发现了高钙血症。随后的诊断检查未发现恶性肿瘤性高钙血症。平滑肌瘤的手术切除导致血钙水平恢复正常。尽管罕见,但对于通过临床病理学确定为高钙血症的患者,应考虑良性高钙血症。
