A case of hypercalcemia in neonatal subcutaneous fat necrosis, which was successfully treated with a low Ca and vitamin D-free formula, is described. Low 1,25(OH)2D and severe calciuria, which were considered to result from hypercalcemia itself as well as parathyroid suppression, were noted during the hypercalcemic phase. The oral Ca load test was repeatedly normal, suggesting that intestinal hyperabsorption of Ca was not a cause of the hypercalcemia. Later recurrence of calciuria without hypercalcemia was noted concomitant with softening of indurated calcified necrotic tissue. In this patient, cerebral infarction on the left side was detected by CT scanning.

D009336 Necrosis The death of cells in an organ or tissue due to disease, injury or failure of the blood supply.
D002544 Cerebral Infarction The formation of an area of NECROSIS in the CEREBRUM caused by an insufficiency of arterial or venous blood flow. Infarcts of the cerebrum are generally classified by hemisphere (i.e., left vs. right), lobe (e.g., frontal lobe infarction), arterial distribution (e.g., INFARCTION, ANTERIOR CEREBRAL ARTERY), and etiology (e.g., embolic infarction).
