Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcaemia (FHH) is an inherited disorder of calcium homeostasis, which is caused by germline loss-of-function mutations of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) in ˜70% of cases. We report a 22 year old woman who was referred with asymptomatic hypercalcaemia. Biochemical investigations revealed hypercalcaemia on 3 of 4 occasions with adjusted serum calcium ranging from 2.59–2.80 mmol/l (normal range 2.20–2.60 mmol/l). Parathyroid hormon...
