Hypervitaminosis D and hard-to-heal wounds: a case report.
Vitamin D is thought to be safe due to its wide therapeutic index and concentrations are rarely raised to toxic levels in the blood. However, excessive vitamin D supplementation can lead to hypervitaminosis D, causing hypercalcaemia and hyperphosphataemia. Due to its lipid solubility, vitamin D can be stored in adipose tissue, leading to persistent hypercalcaemia, even after supplementation has been discontinued. This case reports an 81-year-old female patient who developed hypervitaminosis D after taking excessive vitamin D supplementation for 30 years. The patient presented with complex bilateral leg wounds and tissue calcification. This case highlights the importance of monitoring vitamin D supplementation and the risks associated with hypervitaminosis D, including soft tissue calcification.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Wound Care (JWC) is the definitive wound-care journal and the leading source of up-to-date research and clinical information on everything related to tissue viability. The journal was first launched in 1992 and aimed at catering to the needs of the multidisciplinary team. Published monthly, the journal’s international audience includes nurses, doctors and researchers specialising in wound management and tissue viability, as well as generalists wishing to enhance their practice.
In addition to cutting edge and state-of-the-art research and practice articles, JWC also covers topics related to wound-care management, education and novel therapies, as well as JWC cases supplements, a supplement dedicated solely to case reports and case series in wound care. All articles are rigorously peer-reviewed by a panel of international experts, comprised of clinicians, nurses and researchers.
Specifically, JWC publishes:
High quality evidence on all aspects of wound care, including leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, the diabetic foot, burns, surgical wounds, wound infection and more
The latest developments and innovations in wound care through both preclinical and preliminary clinical trials of potential new treatments worldwide
In-depth prospective studies of new treatment applications, as well as high-level research evidence on existing treatments
Clinical case studies providing information on how to deal with complex wounds
Comprehensive literature reviews on current concepts and practice, including cost-effectiveness
Updates on the activities of wound care societies around the world.
