A case of hypoparathyroidism in a child with beta-thalassemia successfully treated with 1 alpha-hydroxy-vitamin D3

Abstract
A 13-year-old boy with homozygous beta-thalassemia who developed clinically manifest and biochemically proven hypoparathyroidism is described. The latter disease was attributed to hemosiderosis. Laboratory abnormalities were corrected after 1 alpha-hydroxy-vitamin D3 was administered.
