In the article, we give an example of clinical observation and differential diagnosis of hypocalcaemia of a 67-year old woman with autoimmune hypoparathyroidism, postmenopausal osteoporosis. Autoimmune hypoparathyroidism therapy requires constant medication of calcium and vitamin D with the systematic monitoring of indicators of calcium and phosphorus metabolism. The development of hypercalcemia in this clinical case is associated with the detection of multiple myeloma.
