ABSTRACT
Neonates and infants with hypocalcemia usually present with seizures, whereas this is less common in older children and teenagers. We report on a case of hypocalcemic seizures in a 16-year-old girl with undiagnosed end-stage renal disease with progressive growth retardation and bone deformations. We highlight the value of checking serum calcium, phosphate, and creatinine in children with growth retardation, seizures, and/or unexplained bone deformations. We also discuss the clinical consequences of pediatric renal osteodystrophy.
