The condition has both genetic and metabolic causes.

Associated symptoms included headache, vertigo, disturbed sleep, and reduced appetite. Her laboratory workup revealed hypocalcemia and low parathyroid hormone level, computed tomographic (CT) scan of the brain showed diffuse calcification in the brain parenchyma. The patient was diagnosed as a case of Fahr\u2019s syndrome secondary to hypoparathyroidism. The patient was started on calcium and calcium supplementations along with anti-seizure therapy. Her calcium level raised after the initiation of oral prednisolone and she remained asymptomatic.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Steroid could be considered as an adjunct therapy with calcium and vitamin D supplementation in patient whose Fahr\u2019s syndrome is secondary to primary hypoparathyroidism.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/11795476231178119","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,29]],"date-time":"2023-05-29T02:23:57Z","timestamp":1685327037000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Fahr\u2019s Syndrome Secondary to Primary Hypoparathyroidism Presenting With Seizures and the Role of Steroid Therapy"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Syed Yasir","family":"Shah","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Khyber Teaching Hospital MTI KTH, Peshawar, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Faiza Amatul","family":"Hadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mercer University School of Medicine, Macon, GA, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Muhammad","family":"Idrees","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"District Headquarters Hospital, Bannu, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yaxel","family":"Levin-Carrion","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rutgers New Jersey Medical School, Newark, NJ, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Harshawardhan","family":"Pande","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Saint Louis University, St. Louisl, MO, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Melysze Deanne","family":"Oorloff","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qaisar Ali","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Khyber Teaching Hospital MTI KTH, Peshawar, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7499-973X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Adithya","family":"Nadella","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-11795476231178119","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12659\/AJCR.913382"},{"key":"bibr2-11795476231178119","first-page":"129","volume":"50","author":"Fahr T.","year":"1930","journal-title":"Zentralbl Allg Pathol"},{"key":"bibr3-11795476231178119","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1750-1172-8-156"},{"key":"bibr4-11795476231178119","first-page":"532","volume":"7","author":"Asokan AG","year":"2013","journal-title":"J Clin Diagn Res"},{"key":"bibr5-11795476231178119","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10072-020-04733-7"},{"key":"bibr6-11795476231178119","first-page":"129","volume":"30","author":"Chow KS","year":"1989","journal-title":"Zhonghua Min Guo Xiao Er Ke Yi Xue Hui Za Zhi"},{"key":"bibr7-11795476231178119","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3329\/bmjk.v45i1-2.13628"},{"key":"bibr8-11795476231178119","volume":"13","author":"Rashid Khan Z","year":"2021","journal-title":"Cureus"},{"key":"bibr9-11795476231178119","first-page":"932184","author":"Zisimopoulou V","year":"2013","journal-title":"Case Rep Med"},{"key":"bibr10-11795476231178119","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0006-3223(94)90038-8"},{"key":"bibr11-11795476231178119","unstructured":"Amisha F, Munakomi S.
