Symptoms vary greatly and may range from psychiatric ones like confusion and hallucination to neurological like Tremors, Rigidity, with seizures being the rarest manifestation. Laboratory tests and brain imaging play a crucial role in establishing the diagnosis, while treatment primarily focuses on managing symptoms. Here, we report a case of a 17-year-old female diagnosed with Fahr\u2019s syndrome secondary to hypo-parathyroidism, onset of the disease at such young age coupled with uncommon presentation of fits makes this case rather remarkable.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/11795476251332438","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,30]],"date-time":"2025-04-30T03:20:57Z","timestamp":1745983257000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["A Rare Case of Hypoparathyroidism With Basal Ganglia Calcification in a 17-year-old Epileptic Patient Presenting With Falciparum Malaria, Thrombocytopenia and Anemia"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Zauha Fawad","family":"Memon","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine, Peoples University of Medical and Health Sciences, Nawabshah, Sindh, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sibgha Fawad","family":"Memon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine, Peoples University of Medical and Health Sciences, Nawabshah, Sindh, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Matia Fawad","family":"Memon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine, Peoples University of Medical and Health Sciences, Nawabshah, Sindh, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8032-7462","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hussain Haider","family":"Shah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine, Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tooba","family":"Hussain","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine, Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,30]]},"reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","first-page":"532","article-title":"Fahr\u2019s syndrome - an interesting case presentation","volume":"7","author":"Asokan AG","year":"2013","unstructured":"Asokan AG, D\u2019souza S, Jeganathan J, Pai S.
