✦ Synopsis

A 43-year-old male patient with hypercalcemia and osteolytic lesions complicating chronic myelogenous leukemia is presented. Extramedullary myeloid blastic crisis was diagnosed by the histological finding of the specimen biopsied from a osteolytic lesion in the right femur. As the serum levels of parathyroid hormone, 1,25 (OH)2 vitamin D, prostaglandin E2 and interleukin 1, and the urinary excretion of cyclic AMP were all normal, it was considered that the hypercalcemia was attributed to the bone destruction by the invasion of leukemic myeloblasts.
