The ionized calcium concentration, in extracellular fluid (ECF), falls below the reference range, where at birth parathyroid gland have a limited ability to respond to decrease in serum calcium. We present an infant with transient hypoparathyroidism who developed the severe hungry bone syndrome. Such an association is highlighted. case presentation A full term, 50 day-old Saudi male boy, presented to the emergency department with afebrile tonic-clonic seizure lasting for several minutes and aborted by rectal diazepam.
