title: [Calcification of the basal ganglia and hypoparathyroidism: Fahr disease. Study of a family].
abstract: We studied three members of a single family who had basal ganglia calcifications (BGC): two with BGC alone and one associated with parkinsonism and hypoparathyroidism (H). This family links together BGC and H and may help resolve the apparent controversy about relationship of both.
