Core Tip The clinical manifestations of hypoparathyroidism are complex and varied. Fahr's syndrome is diagnosed when basal ganglia calcification occurs. Fahr's syndrome is clinically rare. Here, we report a case of Fahr’s syndrome due to hypoparathyroidism and review the literature from etiology, clinical manifestation, diagnosis and treatment. On the one hand, this case reflects the importance of standardized treatment and follow-up in patients with hypoparathyroidism. On the other hand, it is recommended that clinicians first consider the possibility of hypoparathyroidism when looking for the cause of basal ganglia calcification.
