Popis: A 7-year-old boy with tumor-induced hypophosphatemic rickets is presented. Treatment with orall α(OH)D3 administration (0.75 to 15μg/day) failed to alleviate the rickets. After removal of a benign osteoblastoma, the level of 1α, 25(OH)2D increased and the serum phosphorus level became normal. There after, clinical and roentgenographic features improved, and the rickets was cured.
