Idiopathic hypoparathyroidism in a 3-year-old dog was manifested clinically as periodic episodes of depression, vomiting, and tetanic convulsions. Hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia were detected late in the course of the illness, but the dog died before corrective measures could be instituted. The
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the clinico-pathological findings, response to treatment and prevalence of complications in dogs with primary hypoparathyroidism.
METHODS
Retrospective study of 17 dogs presenting to the University of Melbourne Veterinary Clinical Centre and Murdoch University Veterinary
Hypoparathyroidism is the most common cause of symmetric calcification of the basal ganglia. Herein, a case of primary hypoparathyroidism with severe tetany, rhabdomyolysis, and acute kidney injury is presented. A 26-year-old male was admitted to the emergency clinic with leg pain and cramps,
Primary hypoparathyroidism can occur due to an activating mutation of calcium sensing receptor (CaSR). Most patients remain asymptomatic and therefore not diagnosed until adulthood. We present a 38-year-old lady who had a history of muscle cramps since 8 years. She presented with vomiting, abdomen
Thyroid cancer metastasizes in 4% of cases. Approximately two-thirds of these patients are refractory to radioactive iodine-131 (RAI) therapy and have a poor 10-year survival prognosis. Treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) may be administered in selected RAI-refractory patients. However,
Milk-alkali syndrome (MAS), characterized by renal failure, metabolic alkalosis and hypercalcemia, is a severe and life-threatening complication of the treatment of hypoparathyroidism. The clinical course is often sudden and is not preceded by any prodromal symptoms. Occurrence does not depend on
OBJECTIVE
To report a case of postpartum hypercalcemia in a woman with hypoparathyroidism associated with increased serum concentrations of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) during lactation.
METHODS
The clinical and laboratory data for our patient and the related literature are
Hypomagnesemia is a rare cause of hypoparathyroidism that can have a very serious clinical presentation. We report the case of a 62-year-old woman hospitalized for exploration of acute tetraparesis with vomiting and swallowing disorders associated with a severe hypocalcemia. Biological explorations
A combination of unexplained peripheral neuropathy, hypoparathyroidism, and the inability to cope with metabolic stress could point to a rare inborn error of metabolism, such as mitochondrial trifunctional protein (MTP) deficiency.Here, we describe a 20-year-old woman who was known since childhood

While therapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors such as nivolumab have substantially improved survival in several types of cancer, increased attention has been given to adverse immune events associated with their use, including the development of endocrine autoimmunity.

Kenny Caffey syndrome (KCS) is a rare syndrome reported almost exclusively in Middle Eastern populations. It is characterized by severe growth retardation-short stature, dysmorphic features, episodic hypocalcaemia, hypoparathyroidism, seizures, and medullary stenosis of long bones with thickened
Hemorrhage is a complication of thyroid surgery less important than recurrent laryngeal nerve injury or hypoparathyroidism, but extremely dangerous. Hemorrhage may be early or delayed. Early hemorrhage occurs generally in the operating theatre and is made easier by vomiting and coughing after
OBJECTIVE
Recurrent laryngeal nerve dysfunction and hypoparathyroidism are well-recognized, important complications of thyroid surgery. The duration of convalescence after noncomplicated thyroid operation may depend on several factors, of which pain and fatigue are the most important. Nausea and
A 9-year-old girl and an 11-year-old boy had ptosis, progressive external ophthalmoplegia, pigmentary retinopathy, and sensorineural hearing loss. The girl had diabetes mellitus and the boy had hypoparathyroidism. Both children also developed recurrent vomiting and cerebral infarcts with lactic
Hypoparathyroidism following thyroidectomy or due to autoimmune process is the most common cause of hypocalcaemia. If untreated, maternal hypocalcaemia may stimulate fetal parathyroids which results in bone demineralization. Calcium supplementation may also reduce the risk of hypertension. Moreover,
