Extensive Parenchymal Brain Calcification in a Patient With Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease and Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease [PDF]
ABSTRACT Extensive parenchymal brain calcification is uncommon in chronic kidney disease (CKD): intracranial vascular calcification affects up to 10% of uremic patients, but widespread Fahr‐type parenchymal deposits are rare and, where reported, have occurred in patients with a coexisting hypoparathyroid or parathyroid‐hormone (PTH)‐resistant state.
