title: Nutritional rickets.
abstract: Nutritional rickets was once felt to be a disease of the past. In recent years, dietary patterns and the prevalence of unsupplemented breast feeding has led to a mild resurgence in rickets. The cases presented show a wide spectrum of nutritional disease, illustrating the common risk factors, the usefulness of vitamin-D metabolite assays in making a definitive diagnosis, and the response to vitamin-D therapy.
