Hypoparathyroidism

Hypoparathyroidism is a rare endocrine disorder characterized by absent or deficient production of parathyroid hormone by the parathyroid glands Most frequently acquired secondary to anterior neck surgery—though occasionally arising from autoimmune or genetic causes—the resulting hypocalcemia produces increased neuromuscular irritability that clinically manifests as perioral and digital paresthesias, muscle cramping, tetany, seizures, and potential cardiac conduction abnormalities
