[Transient idiopathic hyperphosphatasemia in a rotavirus infection].
The paper reports two cases of transitory hyperphosphatasemia in two siblings of 13 and 29 months without modifications of the liver, kidney or bones. Laboratory data are given for hepatic and renal function and for the calcium/phosphorus metabolism. The paper underlines the observation of rotavirus and the consequent clinical symptoms in the two subjects. The hypothesised etiopathogenesis of transitory idiopathic hyperphosphatasemia is referred to a viral mechanism, and to rotavirus in particular.
