Popis: | Summary A review of literature on early postnatal rickets and rickets with multiple fractures, together with a survey of 400 cases of active rickets and the determination of the incidence of early rickets and of rickets with multiple fractures, permits an analysis of possible factors contributory to the development of these two forms of the disease. It is suggested that early postnatal rickets and florid rickets with multiple fractures may result from an insufficiency of stored skeletal calcium at the time of birth incident to nutritional and metabolic defects on the part of the maternal organism. A case of early infantile rickets with multiple fractures is reported. |
