Abstract

AbstractHypocalcemia is a fatal electrolytic disorder defined as corrected serum total calcium levels <2.12 mmol/L (8.5 mg/dl). Drug‐induced hypocalcemia is uncommon. A female patient was admitted to Jiangsu Cancer Hospital and diagnosed with nasopharyngeal carcinoma; she developed hypocalcemia after chemotherapy with albumin‐bound paclitaxel. Its diagnosis is incredibly difficult. Confirmatory diagnosis depends on serum total calcium levels and electrocardiogram.
