Miocardiopatía hipoclacémica secundaria a hipoparatiroidismo postiroidectomía: Caso clínico

Calcium plays a central role in ventricular function. We report a 37 year-old woman with chronic hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia secondary to a thyroidectomy performed when she was 18 years old, as treatment for a Graves Basedow's disease. She did not have previous cardiac symptoms and rapi...
