Basal ganglia calcifications and ALS syndrome.

A Scarpitta1, G Pisciotta, B Fierro.   

Abstract

We report the case of a patient with idiopathic hypoparathyroidism and unusually large symmetrical calcifications in the basal ganglia, thalami, cerebellar hemispheres and brainstem, who clinically presented an ALS-like syndrome. We discuss the possible role of abnormal calcium metabolism in the pathogenesis of motoneuron disease.
