Topics discussed include pathophysiology, differing diagnostic strategies for both the pediatric and adult patient, the various forms and causes of hypercalcemia as well as current treatment regimens and algorithms.

By integrating an evidence- and guideline-based framework along with an up-to-date, research-based summary of each cause, Hypercalcemia isrelevant for expert clinicians and up-and-coming medical students alike.
