Abstract:
:We have described a case of hypophosphatasia with a mild progressive course. This condition and its familial propensity may be more prevalent than recognized. Thus, family members of a patient with hypophosphatasia should be screened for this disorder. Enthusiastic pharmacologic, hormonal, and/or dietary supplemental therapy should be avoided.
