Özet
What is already known on this topic? What this study adds?Late neonatal hypocalcemia (LNH) occurs after the first 72 hours and the most common causes include excessive phosphate intake, hypomagnesemia, hypoparathyroidism, and vitamin D deficiency.Maternal vitamin D deficiency was found to be the most common cause of LNH in our study.Due to the immaturity of regulating factors of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcium, serum intact PTH levels may not reach expected levels and serum phosphorus levels may remain high in vitamin D deficient neonates, posing a diagnostic dilemma by mimicking primary hypoparathyroidism.
