What this Trial Is About
Researchers are studying hypercalcemia and related conditions caused by cosmetic intramuscular injections of paraffin oil. The study aims to understand the cause, development, and natural history of paraffin oil-induced granulomatous disease, called paraffin disease. The goal is to discover new treatments through translational research that can be tested in future clinical trials. This is an observational study without treatment intervention, focusing on patients who have previously received intramuscular injections of paraffin or other oils. The study does not include any experimental drug or device administration but monitors patients over time to gather data on disease progression and biological markers. Participants will undergo examinations to measure ionized calcium and parathyroid hormone PTH levels in plasma. Researchers will track these markers at the first visit and throughout an observation period extending up to 2025. The study is designed to better understand disease mechanisms and potential treatment targets, with no interventional procedures involved. The total study period extends until early 2027.
