Abstract

Dysregulated calcium and vitamin D metabolism pose unique challenges for clinicians caring for patients with sarcoidosis. These patients often require supplementation to support their metabolic bone health; however, such interventions may theoretically increase the risk of hypercalcemia and hypercalciuria, along with their associated complications. This article presents 4 clinical vignettes that illustrate common dilemmas encountered in managing these patients.
