Hypercalcitoninemia in acute pancreatitis
J Clin Endocrinol Metab.
1975 Apr.
Abstract
Calcitonin was measured in four patients with acute pancreatitis with hypocalcemia. A marked elevation of this hormone was noted in each case and persisted over several days. The peak level of calcitonin preceded the maximum fall in calcium. Among the various factors affecting calcium balance in pancreatitis, calcitonin probably plays an important role.
