Idiopathic hypoparathyroidism in a 3-year-old dog was manifested clinically as periodic episodes of depression, vomiting, and tetanic convulsions. Hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia were detected late in the course of the illness, but the dog died before corrective measures could be instituted. The pathologic features were similar to those reported in dogs in which hypoparathyroidism was induced by injection of homologous parathyroid tissue, thus suggesting an auto-immune pathogenesis.
