Abstract
Calcium is an electrolyte that is effective in maintaining cell integrity and is found at a high rate in the body. Hypercalcemia is an uncommon but vital electrolyte disorder in childhood, unlike adults. Long-term exposure to hypercalcemia may be associated with mortality and morbidity. Hypercalcemia may develop due to many reasons and there are usually no specific findings at presentation. Therefore, when evaluating hypercalcemia cases, it should be kept in mind that there is a wide differential diagnosis list and that there are different treatment approaches.
