SUMMARY

1. Primary/secondary/tertiary hyperparathyroidism.

2. Drugs: Vit D excess, Vit A excess, thiazide diuretic (decreases calcium excretion), lithium (increases PTH threshold, requiring Ca2+ to be higher to shut off PTH secretion).

3. Malignancy
- Myeloma: produces osteoclast activating factors.
- Some solid tumors: secrete PTH-related protein (different from PTH, which is suppressed by raised serum calcium).
- Metastasis: produce local osteoclast activating factors.

4. Sarcoidosis, TB, histoplasmosis, leprosy: through Vit D production by macrophages.

5. Immobility in the setting of hyperthyroidism, Paget's disease, adolescence.

6. Multi-trauma.

7. Genetic: Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH).
