Seizures in children are usually caused by fever or epilepsy, though they may also be caused by electrolyte, vitamin or mineral disturbances. We describe a case of hypocalcaemic tetany with hypovitaminosis D.
The patient was a previously healthy eight months old girl of Indian origin.
Investigations revealed that she suffered from coeliac disease.
Coeliac disease is a well-known disorder, characterised by enteropathy and malabsorption causing symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhoea and failure to thrive. Enteropathy and specific malnutrition may occur in the total absence of gastrointestinal symptoms.
儿童癫痫发作通常由发热或癫痫引起，不过也可能由电解质、维生素或矿物质紊乱所致。我们描述一例维生素D缺乏性低钙性手足搐搦病例。
患者是一名来自印度的8个月大女童，此前身体健康。
检查发现她患有乳糜泻。
乳糜泻是一种众所周知的疾病，其特征为肠病和吸收不良，可导致呕吐、腹泻和发育不良等症状。即使完全没有胃肠道症状，也可能发生肠病和特定的营养不良。
