|October 1, 1980
Abstract:
A 6-year-old girl suffering from idiopathic hypoparathyroidism and being treated with anticonvulsive drugs developed acute heart failure due to hypocalcemia. Acute heart failure is a rare complication of hypocalcemia. The probable role of anticonvulsive drugs in provoking this complication is discussed.
