Pseudohypoparathyroidism is a genetic disorder that resembles hypoparathyroidism (lowered levels of parathyroid hormone), but is caused by a lack of response to parathyroid hormone rather than having too little of the hormone itself.
Alternative Names:
Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy; Types 1A and 1B pseudohypoparathyroidism
