this study demonstrates that chronic hypercalcemia is associated with accelerated deposition of calcium in the cardiac anuli and valvular cusps , in the media and intima of the coronary arteries and in individual myocardial fibers ( dystrophic calcification ) , and that coronary intimal calcification may be associated with or produce luminal narrowing , especially in patients with serum total cholesterol levels over 200 mg/dl .
