Beschreibung
Hypoparathyroidism is a rare endocrine disorder that can be congenital or acquired. The congenital disorder can result from aplasia or hypoplasia of parathyroids or occurs as a part of genetic syndromes such as Sanjad-Sakati-Richardson Kirk syndrome. Non-syndromic genetic hypoparathyroidism can be inherited as autosomal dominant and X-linked recessive disorders. Acquired hypoparathyroidism can be autoimmune disorder or classified as idiopathic. Autoimmune hypoparathyroidism is generally suggested by its frequent association with other autoimmune disorders and moniliasis. Idiopathic hypoparathyroidism has not been well documented in Iraq. However, a case of autoimmune hypoparathyroidism associated with alopecia totalis has been observed in Iraq during the 1990s and was reported in 2017 by Al Mosawi AJ. Sanjad Sakati Richardson Kirk Syndrome, a disorder associated with congenital hypoparathyroidism has been well described in Iraq by Al Mosawi AJ in 2018. The syndrome of childhood hypoparathyroidism, vitiligo, poliosis, and macrocytic anemia has not been reported in the literature before. The aim of this book is to describe the first case of this syndrome.
