Abstract

Albright's Hereditary Osteodystrophy (AHO) is characterised by obesity, short stature, round face, brachydactyly, subcutaneous ossifications, mental retardation in some cases, hypocalcemia, and elevated serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) level. In this syndrome, there may be pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) characterised by end-organ unresponsiveness to PTH. In this report, we present an AHO case with unusual manifestation by presenting dementia which has not been previously reported.
