- The presence of abnormally high levels of calcium in the blood; usually the result of excessive bone resorption in hyperparathyroidism or Paget's disease
- Hypercalcaemia (British English) or hypercalcemia (American English) is an elevated calcium (Ca2+) level in the blood. (Normal range: 8.7u201310.4u00A0mg/dL or 2.2u20132.5u00A0mmol/L.) It can be an asymptomatic laboratory finding, but because an elevated calcium level is often indicative of other diseases, a workup should be undertaken if it persists...
- An excess of calcium in the Blood.
- An elevated calcium level in the blood that is often indicative of other diseases, especially hyperparathyroidism and malignancy. Hypercalcemia can also occur due to an excessively high intake of vitamin D.
- Excessively high level of calcium in the blood; this complication can be remedied though a course of therapy with bisphosphonates.
