Abstract

A patient with slowly progressive metastatic renal cell carcinoma had life‐threatening hypercalcemia secondary to ectopic parathormone production. Aggressive surgical debulking resulted in prolonged control of the hypercalcemia. This case illustrates the value of this surgery in the control of paraneoplastic endocrine syndromes refractory to medical management in patients with slow‐growing metastatic disease.
