AbstractOncologic patients in urgent medical crises frequently are seen in the Emergency Department. Hypercalcemia, tumor lysis syndrome, hyperviscosity syndrome, and the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone are four metabolic complications that have life-threatening implications. This article reviews these conditions from the perspective of the emergency physician. Clinical presentation, pathophysiology, and management specific to each entity are discussed.
