Hypercalcemia is a known complication of childhood malignancies but has never been reported to be associated with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) in a pediatric patient.
We describe an infant with multisystem LCH who developed hypercalcemia on two occasions. After being placed on indomethacin, the hypercalcemia did not recur despite disease progression.
Hypercalcemia may complicate LCH. If it is demonstrated, indomethacin should be considered as a treatment.
高钙血症是儿童恶性肿瘤已知的并发症,但从未有报道称其与儿科患者的朗格汉斯细胞组织细胞增多症(LCH)相关。
我们描述了一名患有多系统LCH的婴儿,其曾两次出现高钙血症。在使用吲哚美辛后,尽管疾病进展,但高钙血症未再复发。
高钙血症可能使LCH复杂化。如果证实存在高钙血症,应考虑将吲哚美辛作为一种治疗方法。
