Hypercalcemia is a serious health problem occurring due to pathology of many organ systems including thyroid, parathyroid, kidney, and bone. Hypercalcemia due to parathyroid is usually a delayed diagnosis as parathyroid adenoma is usually discovered during surgery of thyroid gland disease. We present a case of hypercalcemia due to parathyroid adenoma, who underwent total thyroidectomy with right inferior parathyroidectomy. We conclude that a patient with features suggestive of hypercalcemia should be suspected to have parathyroid adenoma and every effort has to be made to diagnose parathyroid adenoma as this is a surgically resectable medical problem.
