Attempts at management of idiopathic hypoparathyroidism with vitamin D have led to various reports of resistance to therapy,1 different responses to vitamin D preparations,2 and unexplained toxicity.3 We report a patient with idiopathic hypoparathyroidism who was persistently hypocalcemic during ten months of treatment with vitamin D, 150,000 units/day. After voluntary weight reduction he became hypercalcemic on the same dose of vitamin D. We believe that the toxicity in this instance was due to release of stored vitamin D into the circulation. CASE REPORT The patient was referred to the hospital at 12½ years of age because of intracranial calcifications noted on roentgenograms obtained for the evaluation of sinusitis.

AbstractThe crest, plate and bars like bony projections may be present on sigmoid sulcus. The bony connection between petrous temporal and occipital bone may divide the jugnlar foramen. A skull with bilateral curved bony plate connecting the inner margin of groove for sigmoid sinus and petrous temporal was observed during routine osteology classes. The shape, size and location of both the bars were almost identical. These bony bars were connecting the posterior margin of petrous temporal and postero-lateral part of sigmoid sulcus. Structurally, they resembled as a part of ring. The location of the bar was more lateral on left side as compared to right side. Some bony erosion was also seen in the floor of sigmrid sulcus. Bilateral ossification and formation of bar at sigmoid sulcus is associated with venous sinus anomalies, dural ossification and intracranial calcifications.
