Enthesopathy as the presenting feature of X-linked hypophosphatemia. A case report.
X-linked hypophosphatemia has a wide spectrum of clinical presentation. I describe a woman in whom diffuse enthesopathy was the only manifestation. The diagnosis was established from the family history. The severity of the enthesopathy did not relate to the severity of the biochemical changes.
