Fahr's Syndrome Presenting With Hypocalcemia and Psychotic Features.

Fahr's disease is a rare genetic neurodegenerative disorder described as "bilateral striopallidodentate calcinosis" (BSPDC). It is characterized by calcium deposition crossing the blood-brain barrier and calcifying different brain areas. Here, we report a case of a 26-year-old Saudi young lady, known as a case of epilepsy since childhood, a major depressive disorder with psychotic features, and hypocalcemia related to hypoparathyroidism. CT brain showed extensive coarse calcifications involving the infra and supratentorial white matter, predominantly within the basal ganglia, thalami, and dentate nuclei of cerebellar hemispheres. This report will discuss the challenging presentation, clinical symptoms, and the multidisciplinary approach to manage Fahr's syndrome symptoms. In conclusion, this case emphasizes the importance of neuroimaging and metabolic workup when investigating the seizure's etiology. The goal of treatment in Fahr's syndrome is to manage the underlying conditions.
