A review of computed tomograms (CT) of 7,120 patients demonstrated bilateral basal ganglia calcifications in 17. Skull roentgenograms were normal in all patients. Seven patients (41%) were older than 50 years of age with no basal ganglia dysfunction and metabolic abnormalities. Therefore it was thought that they may represent the senescent calcification. The second largest group was idiopathic hypoparathyroidism. These five patients (29%) were 16 to 32 years of age, had convulsive seizures and widespread calcifications. The other five patients had various symptomatology. Hypoparathyroidism should be investigated in young patients, if they have convulsive seizures and widespread basal ganglia calcifications on CT.
对7120例患者的计算机断层扫描（CT）进行回顾发现，17例患者存在双侧基底节钙化。所有患者的颅骨X线片均正常。7例患者（41%）年龄超过50岁，无基底节功能障碍和代谢异常。因此，认为它们可能代表衰老性钙化。第二大组是特发性甲状旁腺功能减退症。这5例患者（29%）年龄在16至32岁之间，有惊厥发作和广泛钙化。其他5例患者有各种症状。对于年轻患者，如果他们有惊厥发作且CT显示基底节广泛钙化，应进行甲状旁腺功能减退症的检查。
