[Review of 15 cases of hypervitaminosis D].
In our experience, hypervitaminosis D, which at present should only be a historic remembrance in pediatrics, is still a frequent cause of hipercalcemia in childhood. It is easy understand that its appearance should turn out to be a complication in the treatment of hypoparathyroidisms or in vitamin D resistant rickets, but its persistance as a purely iatrogenic diseases is at present inexplicable. The frequency with which we have seen it has led us to review 15 cases where erroneous administration of high doses of vitamin D has resulted in serious clinical, biological and anatomical problems.
