title: A case report of a 14 year old male with pseudohypoparathyroidism associated with multiple hormonal resistance.
abstract: Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) is a rare hereditary metabolic disorder that may or may not be associated with resistance to parathyroid hormone (pseudohypoparathyroidism) or other hormones. The disorder is commonly characterized by a constellation of dysmorphic physical features and with biochemical levels that demonstrate hypocalcaemia and hyperphosphatemia. We report here a clinical case of a 14 year old male with AHO and we discuss his clinical features, radiographic and laboratory findings along with treatment.
