title: Idiopathic hypoparathyroidism with gestational diabetes.
abstract: A case of gestational diabetes complicating the pregnancy of a hypoparathyroid gravid patient is presented. Labor was induced by prostaglandin E2 vaginal tablets, but delivery was by cesarean section. Separate treatment of the two endocrinopathies was successful. After the induction of labor, hypocalcemia and hypoglycemia were seen, and they may have been caused by the prostaglandin E2.
