Abstract
Patients with altered kidney function are at increased risk of hypocalcemia after denosumab administration. There is however a small number of studies and case reports describing hypocalcemia refractory to treatment. We describe a case of severe hypocalcemia, after the administration of three doses of denosumab, in a young patient with lupus nephritis under corticosteroid coverage and osteopenia. However, more studies are needed in order to extract a safe conclusion about the factors that contribute to the development of severe hypocalcemia in this group of patients.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Musculoskeletal and Neuronal Interactions (JMNI) is an academic journal dealing with the pathophysiology and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. It is published quarterly (months of issue March, June, September, December). Its purpose is to publish original, peer-reviewed papers of research and clinical experience in all areas of the musculoskeletal system and its interactions with the nervous system, especially metabolic bone diseases, with particular emphasis on osteoporosis. Additionally, JMNI publishes the Abstracts from the biannual meetings of the International Society of Musculoskeletal and Neuronal Interactions, and hosts Abstracts of other meetings on topics related to the aims and scope of JMNI.
