case_images: Laboratory tests performed at that time showed worsening of renal function (creatinine 7.31 mg/dL) and hypercalcemia (calcium 17.1 mg/dL) (Figure 1). The patient evolved with progressively lower calcium levels and was discharged with a calcium of 10.7 mg/dL (Figure 1) and creatinine of 5.9 mg/dL after four days of hospitalization, with an indication for follow-up investigation on the etiology of hypercalcemia on an outpatient basis. After 30 days of the acute condition, the patient remained with controlled calcemia (Figure 1) without additional intervention.
