Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) is a benign autosomal dominant condition characterized by lifelong asymptomatic hypercalcemia. FHH is typically caused by a heterozygous inactivating mutation of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) and characterized by moderate hypercalcemia, inappropriately normal or elevated serum parathyroid hormone (PTH), and relative hypocalciuria (FeCa 2%. PTH levels were repeatedly below the mean of the reference range (on two separate assays) and sometimes even below the lower reference limit. Two siblings, one niece, and her son had hypercalcemia without nephrolithiasis. Cinacalcet, used as a PTH-suppression test, normalized serum total and ionized calcium after 7 days of cinacalcet 30 mg BID, confirming her hypercalcemia was PTH-mediated. Given her family history, genetic testing was pursued and discovered a novel pathogenic mutation of the CaSR gene confirming the diagnosis of FHH type 1. Our case represents an atypical presentation of FHH1 with low PTH and FeCa > 2%. This contributes to the expanding clinical and biochemical spectrum of CaSR inactivating mutations and presents an innovative approach to evaluating biochemically uncertain familial hypercalcemia with cinacalcet before pursuing expensive genetic analysis.
