We report a case of severe TBCE-negative phenotypic HRD in a 4-year-old female from India presenting with hypocalcemic seizures due to congenital hypoparathyroidism, extreme microcephaly, growth deficiency, ocular anomalies, and facial dysmorphism.
Deletion and truncation mutations in the gene encoding TBCE have been shown to cause the rare autosomal recessive syndrome known as HRD, a devastating disorder characterized by congenital hypoparathyroidism, mental retardation, facial dysmorphism, and extreme growth failure.
Successful pregnancies and reduced treatment requirement while breast feeding in a patient with congenital hypoparathyroidism due to homozygous c.68C>A null parathyroid hormone gene mutation.
