title: [Chronic hypophosphatemic osteopathy (author's transl)].
abstract: The process of chronic hypophosphatemic vitamin D-resistant rickets--observation of two cases. With the male patient--our first case--the disease was sporadic and had not been recognized for a long time. In his early adulthood it manifested itself as Umbauzonen (pseudofractures) in the larger context of active osteomalacia. It was possible to observe the pseudofractures before and while the patient was treated with drugs. High doses of vitamin D 3 and dosage of phosphate mitigated the complains although with respect to the radiological, scintigraphic, humoral and histological findings there was only slow improvement or no improvement at all.--The patient's daughter is affected by the disease as well. In her case the pathological signs of her bones became better when treated with vitamin D 3.
