FAHR SYNDROME REVEALED BY A CONVULSIVE CRISIS ASSOCIATED WITH IATROGENIC HYPERPARATHYROIDISM: CASE REPORT

Fahrs syndrome is a rare anatomoclinical entity whose main etiology is primary or postoperative hypoparathyroidism. It is characterized by bilateral and symmetrical intracerebral calcifications, localized in the basal ganglia. Hypoparathyroidism, primary or postoperative, is the most classic anomaly. Hyperparathyroidism is exceptionally reported as a cause of Fahr syndrome.
