Information on the time course of serum calcium levels after renal transplantation is scanty, especially in the early posttransplantation period. Both the abrupt cessation of calcium-containing phosphorus binders and vitamin D (analogs) at the time of surgery and the recovery of renal function may be hypothesized to affect serum calcium levels in this period. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS: In this prospective observational study, biointact parathyroid hormone, calcidiol, calcitriol, calcium, and phosphorus levels were monitored in 201 renal transplant recipients at the time of transplantation and 3 mo thereafter. In addition, the serum calcium nadir and peak in each individual patient within this time frame were identified and the urinary fractional calcium excretion was determined at month 3. RESULTS: Serum calcium levels followed a biphasic pattern with a significant decline during the first postoperative week, followed by a significant increase. High pretransplantation parathyroid hormone levels protect against hypocalcemia within the first postoperative week but put patients at risk for hypercalcemia later. These complications, occurring in 41 and 14% of the patients, respectively, most probably reflect inappropriate calcium release from the skeleton, rather than inappropriate renal calcium handling. CONCLUSIONS: Our data indicate that both hypo- and hypercalcemia are prevalent in the early posttransplantation period. Pretransplantation parathyroid function is an important predictor of posttransplantation calcium levels.
