{Abstract}: Fahr syndrome is a rare neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by calcium deposition in the brain. It is usually associated with phosphocalcium metabolism disorders, like hypoparathyroidism, or with genetical predisposition, as seen in Fahr disease. Given the wide array of differential diagnoses medical awareness should be emphasized to prompt diagnosis and management. In this case, we depict a classical presentation of Fahr syndrome, highlighting the differential diagnosis with stroke given the similar clinical signs and symptoms, although pointing out the distinct radiological presentation that raises clinical suspicion for this entity.
