A boy is described who presented aged 7 weeks with severe biochemical and radiological neonatal hyperparathyroidism that had completely resolved by the age of 6 months. His mother had a normal serum calcium concentration but his father, paternal aunt, and paternal cousin all had a raised serum calcium due to familial hypocalciuric hypercalcaemia.
