Hypercalcemia is the most common life-threatening metabolic
disorder associated with cancer. The pathophysiological,
epidemiological and clinical aspects of hypercalcemia of malignancy
are presented in this issue, with a focus on the recently
discovered humoral factor responsible for the development of
hypercalcemia. With a better understanding of the pathophysiology
of this condition and the development of new potent drugs, capable
of inhibiting bone resorption, especially bisphosphonates, the
clinician will be more successful in correcting hypercalcemia in
the great majority of patients.
