  • Title: [Hypophosphatemic osteomalacia].
    Author: Bullmann C, Benker G, Rosien U, Delling G, Siggelkow H, Schulte HM.
    Journal: Med Klin (Munich); 2008 Sep 15; 103(9):671-5. PubMed ID: 18813890.
    Abstract:
    Hypophosphatemic osteomalacia first presenting in adulthood is a rare disease. It is characterized by decreased serum phosphate, renal phosphate wasting, elevated alkaline phosphatase, and osteomalacia. The authors present a case with typical constellation of an oncogenic (tumor-induced) osteomalacia, the possible differential diagnosis, diagnostic evaluation, and complete healing after tumor resection. The new concepts of hereditary and acquired hypophosphatemic osteomalacia are discussed helping us understand this rare disease.
