Abstrakt: Long-term hypophosphatemia, defined by serum phosphorus (P) levels <2.5mg/dL, impairs the development and quality of mineralized tissue of the skeletal, dental, and auditory systems. P homeostasis depends mainly on intestinal absorption and renal excretion. Hypophosphatemia may be due to the redistribution of P to the intracellular space, increased renal losses, or decreased intestinal absorption. Hypophosphatemia can be categorized as acute or chronic, depending on the time course. Most cases, either acute or chronic, are due to acquired causes. However, some chronic cases may have a genetic origin. Accurate and early diagnosis, followed by adequate treatment, is essential to limit its negative effects on the body.
