Hypercalcemia induced by parathyroid hormone-related peptide after treatment of carcinoma.
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck is a rare cause of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy. This paraneoplastic syndrome is usually one of the presenting symptoms of the disease. We report a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity that presumably elaborated parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTH-rP) and caused hypercalcemia only after radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Pneumonia due to Mycoplasma pneumoniae with transient proteinuria.
Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia can be associated with several systemic features. This report illustrates a case of M. pneumoniae pneumonia in an adult who recovered completely. Direct infection of the kidneys or an immunologic mechanism may have been the underlying cause. This patient also had simultaneous pharyngitis caused by group A beta-hemolytic streptococci. Various clinical possibilities with respect to pneumonia, pharyngitis, and proteinuria are briefly reviewed.
