摘要：
The association of hypercalcemia and systemic lupus erythematosus is quite uncommon, with only three cases having been reported in the literature. We present a case in which this association is highlighted and demonstrate the presumed mechanism of high calcium level and the usefulness of early diagnosis and aggressive treatment.
