Pseudohypoparathyroidism with striopallidodentate calcification--a case report and review of the literature.
One case of calcification in the striopallidodentate system associated with pseudohypoparathyroidism type I is described. Striopallidodentate calcification accompanying a disturbance in calcium metabolism is, to our knowledge, extremely rare with only thirteen previously documented cases reported, of which only two cases accompany pseudohypoparathyroidism. Moreover, our case showed an elevated titer of antiparietal-cell antibody.
