Pseudo-pseudohypoparathyroidism:
A disputable syndrome
Summary
Two cases of the so-called syndrome of pseudo-pseudohypoparathyroidism are described.
Metacarpal and metatarsal defects may be seen not only in pseudo-pseudohypoparathyroidism, but are occasionally encountered in patients with multiple congenital defects.
