Abstract

Approximately 5% of gynecological malignancies are associated with paraneoplastic hypercalcemia. Awareness of its association with certain tumor types allows for earlier disease detection and facilitates monitoring of treatment response and disease recurrence. We review the salient clinicopathological features, differential diagnosis and management issues in some of these gynecological tumors, namely: small cell carcinoma, hypercalcemic type; ovarian clear cell carcinoma, dysgerminoma and juvenile granulosa cell tumors.
