Abstract
Kenny-Caffey Syndrome is a rare syndrome characterized by growth retardation, uniformly small slender long bones with medullary stenosis, thickened cortex of the long bones, hypocalcemia possibly with tetany at an early age, hyperphosphatemia, ocular abnormalities, and normal intelligence. We report a child with Kenny-Caffey Syndrome and idiopathic hypoparathyroidism and present a review of the literature summarizing the reported cases of this rare syndrome.
