Abstract: | An offspring of marriage between two first cousins presented with atonic seizures developed on the 20th day of life. The physical examination of the case was normal. In laboratory results, Ca+2 level was 5,7 mg/dl, Mg+2: 0,4 mg/dl (1,3–2,1), PTH: 28,4 pg/ml (12–92), and P-: 4,5 mg/dl. The case was diagnosed as hypomagnesemia with secondary
hypocalcemia (HSH) and TRPM6 gene mutation analysis revealed a homozygote mutation of E157X. |
