“…2009). Early neonatal hypocalcaemia in man is reported to be easily controlled by calcium supplementation but cases with late neonatal hypocalcaemia sometimes do not respond to supplementation and may necessitate monthly treatment (Sander 1967). Therefore, the foal was started on oral calcium supplementation, even at a point where it was still hypocalcaemic.…”

Summary This Case Report describes a 5‐week‐old male Arabian foal of Egyptian bloodline with generalised seizures due to hypocalcaemia. The laboratory changes in this foal were consistent with an abnormal regulation of calcium as occurs with hypoparathyroidism. Prolonged transient neonatal hypoparathyroidism as reported in man was suspected. The foal received oral calcium and vitamin D3 supplementation combined with the calcium sparing diuretic carbonic anhydrase inhibitor acetazolamide. Calcium concentrations increased gradually over 6 months. In Arabian foals, especially those of Egyptian bloodline suffering suspected juvenile epilepsy, hypocalcaemia should be ruled out as a cause of seizures.
