Abstract:
:Growth in height of 16 patients (5 boys and 11 girls) with hypophosphataemic rickets (HR) was studied in a longitudinal survey. The data shortly before and during puberty were analysed on the basis of Preece Baines curves, fitted to the original data; for the analysis at the age of 5 years, the original data were used. It appeared that the overall shape of the individual and average growth pattern could be adequately described by the Preece Baines method. The results further showed that from the age of 5 years onwards, average height was approximately two standard deviations below the normal mean for Dutch children. The patients showed a normal pubertal growth spurt which was, in general, insufficient to restore the growth retardation already established before adolescence. The four children who did show catch-up growth between the age of 5 years and adulthood had minimal rachitic lesions. The greater impact of the disease on growth in early childhood than on adolescent growth could be explained by the fact that HR mainly affects the growth of the legs, the major contributor to body size in early childhood. Finally, it was found that the difference between bone age, as determined by the Tanner Whitehouse (TW2)-method, and chronological age was not significant and the adult height in all patients except two could be adequately predicted from bone age and height.
