Abstract |
A resurgence of milk-alkali syndrome is attributable to increases in calcium therapy for the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and hyperphosphatemia in chronic renal failure. In Korea, traditionally ox's bone extract is used to treatment of arthralgia, degenerative arthritis, and nutritional supplements. We treated one woman who presented with the triad of hypercalcemia, metabolic alkalosis, and renal failure after ingestion of ox's bone extract. All metabolic abnormalities were normalized, and renal function improved with supportive measures and cessation of ox's bone extract. |
