Abstract excerpt
Missense mutations in the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) gene have previously been identified in patients with familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) and neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism. We identified a newborn with hypercalcemia in our hospital by mass screening. The family members were studied, and we found a novel CaSR missense mutation with polymerase chain reaction single-strand conformational...
