Vitamin D intoxication treated with porcine calcitonin.

Porcine calcitonin was used to treat three patients with hypercalcaemia due to vitamin D intoxication. In two patients a rapid and sustained fall to normal in serum calcium occurred within three days, in the third patient normocalcaemia was achieved in seven days. In view of its rapid and sustained effect calcitonin may be of value in the urgent treatment of hypercalcaemia due to vitamin D intoxication.

Radioimmunoassay of parathyroid hormone in primary hyperparathyroidism: studies after removal of parathyroid adenoma.

Parathyroid hormone has been measured by radioimmunoassay in eight patients with hyperparathyroidism due to parathyroid adenoma. Secretion of hormone by the adenomatas was demonstrated direct by estimating the arteriovenous gradient of parathyroid hormone across the tumours. Serial estimations following surgical removal of the adenoma showed a rapid fall in the concentration of circulating parathyroid hormone. The calculated half-life of endogenously secreted parathyroid hormone in man varied from 11.4 to 28.8 min., with a mean of 19.8 min.
