Growth Hormone Treatment of 2 Patients with X-linked Hypophosphatemic Rickets Caused by PHEX Mutation: Effects on Linear Growth

Rojek Aleksandra , Obara-Moszynska Monika , Niedziela Marek

Background: Hypophosphatemic rickets (HR) is a group of rare disorders caused by an excessive renal phosphate wasting. X-linked HR (XLHR) is caused by mutation in PHEX (phosphate-regulating endopeptidase) gene and is characterized mainly by bone deformities, disproportionately short stature, dental anomalies and hypophosphatemia with coexisting low renal phosphate reabsorption. Early treatment with vitamin D and phosphate improves the patient’s growth. Recombinan...

A Rare Cause of Hypercalcemia in Childhood: Hypercalcemia Associated with Parathormon-Related Peptid

Catlı Gonul , Filibeli Berna Eroğlu , Demir Belde Kasap , Mutlubaş Fatma , Dundar Bumin Nuri

Introduction: Parathormone-related peptide (PTHrP) regulates tissue calcium concentration by acting in paracrine or autocrine ways. It is mostly responsible for paraneoplastic hypercalcemia seen in adults. Paraneoplastic hypercalcemia in children is rarely reported in cancers such as ALL, medulloblastoma and hepatoblastoma (0.4–0.7%). In experimental studies, PTHrP is shown to be synthesized apart from neoplastic tissue (glomerulus and tubule cells).<p class="abstext"...

Borysewicz-Sańczyk Hanna , Sawicka Beata , Kiryluk Barbara , Szumowski Piotr , Allgrove Dr. Jeremy , Bossowski Artur

Introduction: PTH is one of the principal regulatory hormones for calcium and phosphate homeostasis. Hypoparathyroidism, caused by reduced parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentration is characterised by hypocalcemia and hyperphosphataemia. Hypoparathyroidism in children can occur either as part of a genetic syndrome, autoimmune disorder, be acquired secondarily to thyroidectomy or some destructive process of the glands. If the reason for decreased PTH concentration is unknown, it ...

Clinical and Genetic Evaluations of Three Patients with Vitamin D Dependent Rickets Type 1A

Kulikova Kristina , Kolodkina Anna , Vasiliev Eugeny , Petrov Vasily , Tiulpakov Anatoly

Vitamin D dependent rickets type 1A (VDDR-IA) is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern and caused by mutations in CYP27B1 gene encoding enzyme 1α-hydroxylase. Deficiency of 1α-hydroxylase leads to decrease of 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D production. VDDR-IA usually manifests clinically during the 1st year of life. Clinical features of VDDR- IA include progressive growth retardation, hypotonia, rachitic skeletal deformities, hypocalcemic seizures in early infancy. Serum ...

Results of 22 Weeks of Burosumab Therapy in a Patient with Severe Bone Deformities due to XLH

Ruiz-Ocana Pablo , Roldan-Cano Virginia , Castellano-Mendoza Ana , Salazar-Oliva Patricia , Lechuga-Sancho Alfonso

X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) is the most common form of hereditary rickets. It is caused by inactivating mutations in the PHEX gene (phosphate-regulating-endopeptidase-analog, X-linked), leading to increased fibroblastic growth (FGF-23) levels, responsible for the renal phosphate wasting. This results in hyperphosphaturia and hypophosphatemia, and altered bone mineralization, in the absence of vitamin D deficiency. Classical treatment consists on oral supplementatio...

Severe Neonatal Hypercalcemia: A Challenging Case

Hashim Raihana , Prematilake Dilusha , Gunasekara Buddi , Suntharesan Jananie , Kollurage Udeni , Atapattu Navoda

Neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder due to inactivating mutations of calcium-sensing receptor. These receptors are vital in calcium homeostasis and are expressed in a number of tissues such as parathyroid glands, renal tubules and bone. Homozygous mutations lead to severe hypercalcemia and life-threatening bone demineralization if untreated. A neonate born to 2nd degree consanguineous parents presented with poor feeding...

A Novel Deletion Mutation in the GLUT 2 Gene in a Patient with Fanconi Bickel Syndrome

Noorian Shahab , Aghamahdi Fatemeh , Rad Samira Saee

Glucose transporter 2(GLUT2), a transmembrane carrier protein that facilitates glucose movement across cell membranes, is an essential protein in carbohydrate metabolism. Mutation of SCL2A2 gene, which encodes this transporter, leads to a rare well- defined entity called glycogen storage disease type XI (GSD XI) also known as Fanconi Bickel syndrome. The result of this defect is hepatomegaly, proximal tubular dysfunction, fasting hypoglycemia, glucose intolerance, failure to t...

Hypercalcemia due to Six Newly Identified Inactivating Mutations in the CaSR Gene

Kor Yılmaz

Introduction: Heterozygous inactivating mutations that occur in the calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) gene often lead to benign mild to moderate and parathormone (PTH) dependent familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH). Neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism is a clinical condition that develops due to homozygous inactivating mutations in the CASR gene and results in severe, life-threatening hypercalcemia. In this study, we aimed to discuss the differences in clinical, genetic, l...
