Abstract

Diffuse metastatic visceral calcification is rare in breast cancer. We report on a 57-year-old woman with breast cancer and hypercalcemia who had diffuse metastatic visceral calcifications on lungs, myocardium, stomach, and thyroid on a (99m)Tc-methylene diphosphonate bone scan. Visceral calcifications were completely resolved 6 months after successful anticancer and zoledronic acid treatments. Bone scanning offers a useful diagnostic tool for both identifying visceral calcification and assessing the response to therapy in chemosensitive malignities with hypercalcemia such as breast cancer.
