Core Tip |
Hypoparathyroidism-related cardiomyopathy is rare but reversible. We present a rare case of congestive heart failure associated with hypocalcemia in an elderly female with a history of thyroidectomy. The heart failure was reversed rapidly by infusion of calcium gluconate. With the supplementation of calcium, the cardiac function was maintained very well. The patient also presented with a history of cataracts. This case highlights that, for patients with potential hypocalcemia, we need to supplement calcium and closely monitor calcium levels to manage the hypocalcemia in time to avoid serious complications, such as cardiac complications or cataracts. |
