“…To date, only a handful of PHP2 cases have been reported, and the molecular defect responsible for this variant is still unknown. It has also been hypothesised that PHP2 could either be an acquired defect secondary to vitamin D deficiency (14), as calcium and vitamin D supplementation resulted in normalisation of the phosphaturic response to PTH in some patients (14,15), or due to defects downstream the Gsa protein, as seen in patients with acrodysostosis type 1 (ACRDYS1) (16).…”

“…The diagnosis of pseudohypoparathyroidism in this case is based on chronic tetany with persistent hypocalcemia, the characteristic physical signs of round face, short stature, short metacarpals and metatarsals, subcutaneous calcification, absence of increase of phosphate and cyclic AMP in urine in response to exogenous PTH and slightly elevated PTH in serum in the absence of renal insufficiency or malabsorption syndrome, and this case apparently belongs to classical Type I (Drezner et al, 1973;Rodriguez et al, 1974). Although serum Ca was definitely low in the past, only a mild hypocalcemia was seen recently with disappearance of tetany andconvulsion, Endocrinol. Japon (Sinha et al, 1975 and.…”

“…However, this does not necessarily indicate absolute skeletal refractoriness to the hormone, because the dose of PTH administered was lower than that usually used (Rodriguez et al, 1974;Drenzner et al, 1976). Moreover, the evidence demonstrating the increased alkaline phosphatase in the patient I-A and I-B which was decreased after calcium and vitamin D therapy (PHP Type I) and relatively mild hypocalcemia in the patient II (PHP Type II) suggests that skeletal resistance may be incomplete.…”

“…PHP Type I is a disorder which fails to show an increase in urinary cAMP and phosphate excretion by the administration of PTH, but PHP Type II is that which responds to the administration of PTH with a marked rise in urinary cAMP, but no increase in phosphate excretion. Rodriguez et al (1974) reported on a patient with PHP Type II who restored renal responsiveness to PTH by calcium administration.In the current study, we compared the. effect of calcium administration on renal response to PTH in these patients with PHP, with that in normal subjects and patients with idiopathic and surgical hypoparathyroidism.…”
