Abstract
|
|
|
|
Fahr`s disease is a rare disease characterized by idiopathic abnormal deposits of calcium in intracranial areas. Fahr`s syndrome occurs secondarily to other diseases. Endocrine disorders, particularly parathyroid hormone disorders, are most commonly associated with Fahr`s syndrome. Common clinical features of Fahr`s disease or syndrome include movement disorder, phychiatric disorder, epileptic seizure, dementia, headache, dystonia, myoclonus, tremor, and parkinsonism. We report on a case of a 35-year-old woman with Fahr`s syndrome who presented with epileptic seizure and pseudohypoparathyroidism.
