The reported case of 2 brothers suffering from medullary sponge kindeys is unique in that uremia developed in spite of the absence of urinary tract obstruction, infection or hypertension. With the exception of congenital nystagmus and psoriasis, none of the extrarenal malformations often associated with medullary sponge kidneys was observed.

We report 10 patients with primary hypoparathyroidism. Age at onset varied from 7 months to 52 years (mean 28); 7 were female. Diagnosis was established at a mean of 4.1 years after the appearance of clinical manifestations. Unexplained hypocalcemia (mean 5.3 mg/dl) and hyperphosphatemia (mean 6.4 mg/dl) were present in all patients. Prevalent symptoms included tetany (9 patients), seizures (5) and hypocalcemic cataracts (4). Clinical manifestations may be grouped into 5 types 1) tetany; 2) seizures; 3) other neurologic disorders (basal ganglia calcification, pseudotumor of the brain, ataxia, nystagmus, hypertonus, paresis); 4) disorders of the lens including fully developed cataracts and 5) skin alterations like psoriasis and others. Some of these run on acute course (seizures, tetany), others a subacute one (skin alterations) while others are rather chronic (cataract and other neurologic disorders). Seizures and electroencephalographic disorders predominate in younger patients while tetany is more prevalent in older subjects.
