Presentation and clinical progression of pseudohypoparathyroidism with multi-hormone resistance and Albright hereditary osteodystrophy: a case series

J Pediatr. 2006 Dec;149(6):877-880. doi: 10.1016/j.jpeds.2006.08.050.

Abstract

Anthropometric and biochemical features were retrospectively evaluated in 12 patients with pseudohypoparathyroidism, Albright hereditary osteodystrophy, and multi-hormone resistance. Hypothyroidism and subcutaneous calcifications were presenting features in younger children. Temporal trends in stimulatory hormone resistance included early thyroid-stimulating hormone elevation and progression from parathyroid hormone elevation to hyperphosphatemia and hypocalcemia.
