Conditions

Hypercalcemia, Paraffinoma, Renal Injury

Brief summary

The aim of the study is to characterize paraffin oil induced granulomatous disease. We will investigate pathogenesis and natural history of paraffin disease. Subsequently, through further translational studies, we intend to identify novel treatments to be tested in future randomized clinical trials.
