Abstract
Two cases of Fahr’s disease (one female and one male) are reported here. One is young and symptomatic with neuropsychiatric disturbances. The second case is old and asymptomatic, detected incidentally on CT scan when he presented with cerebrovascular accident. Both of them had intracranial calcifications in bilateral basal ganglia and cerebral hemispheres. CT scan helped in establishing the diagnosis.
