Abstract

Pseudohypoparathyroidism is a complex endocrine disorder caused by various possible biochemical receptor abnormalities of the parathyroid hormone. Phenotypical features that result depend heavily on the type of pseudohypoparathyroidism and genetic inheritance (maternal versus paternal inheritance). We discuss a case of an 18-year-old female refugee who presented as a new patient with multiple complaints including seizure disorder fitting the phenotypical syndrome known as Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy. Allopathic treatment and theoretical osteopathic therapies that can be used are discussed.
