  • Title: Renal failure in adult onset hypophosphatemic osteomalacia with Fanconi syndrome: a family study and review of the literature.
    Author: Harrison NA, Bateman JM, Ledingham JG, Smith R.
    Journal: Clin Nephrol; 1991 Apr; 35(4):148-50. PubMed ID: 1649711.
    Abstract:
    Follow-up of a previously reported family with dominantly inherited adult onset hypophosphatemic osteomalacia with Fanconi syndrome and diabetes mellitus has shown that both the proposita and her affected sister have developed renal glomerular failure. We describe the evolution of renal failure in this family and discuss the possible mechanisms involved. The development of renal tubular acidosis in this condition further impairs renal function and we suggest that correction of systemic acidosis might improve renal function and prevent further decline in these patients.
