Abstract

Vitamin D deficiency is common. It causes osteomalacia, may contribute to osteoporosis and is an independent risk factor for cancer, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. We describe patients with a history of sarcoidosis who developed acute kidney injury due to hypercalcaemia following treatment with colecalciferol.
