HYPOCALCEMIC VITAMIN D-RESISTANT RICKETS

Alternate names

HYPOCALCEMIC VITAMIN D-RESISTANT RICKETS Is also known as vdrr ii, vddr ii, vitamin d-dependent rickets type ii, hvdrr, hereditary vitamin d-resistant rickets, vitamin d-resistant rickets type ii

Description

Hypocalcemic vitamin D-resistant rickets (HVDRR) is a hereditary disorder of vitamin D action characterized by hypocalcemia, severe rickets and in many cases alopecia.

Most common symptoms of HYPOCALCEMIC VITAMIN D-RESISTANT RICKETS

  • Short stature
  • Scoliosis
  • Gait disturbance
  • Frontal bossing
  • Abnormality of the dentition

VITAMIN D-DEPENDENT RICKETS, TYPE 2A; VDDR2A

Alternate names

VITAMIN D-DEPENDENT RICKETS, TYPE 2A; VDDR2A Is also known as generalized resistance to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin d, rickets-alopecia syndrome, vitamin d-dependent rickets, type 2a, with or without alopecia, vitamin d-resistant rickets with end-organ unresponsiveness to 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, hypocalcemic vitamin d-

Description

Vitamin D-dependent rickets type 2A (VDDR2A) is caused by a defect in the vitamin D receptor gene. This defect leads to an increase in the circulating ligand, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Most patients have total alopecia in addition to rickets.VDDR2B (OMIM ) is a form of vitamin D-dependent rickets with a phenotype similar to VDDR2A but a normal vitamin D receptor, in which end-organ resistance to vitamin D has been shown to be caused by a nuclear ribonucleoprotein that interferes with the vitamin D receptor-DNA interaction.For a general phenotypic description and discussion of genetic heterogeneity of rickets due to disorders in vitamin D metabolism or action, see vitamin D-dependent rickets type 1A (VDDR1A ).

Most common symptoms of VITAMIN D-DEPENDENT RICKETS, TYPE 2A; VDDR2A

  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Hearing impairment
  • Growth delay
  • Failure to thrive
  • Sensorineural hearing impairment

OSTEOPOROSIS

Alternate names

OSTEOPOROSIS Is also known as bone mineral density quantitative trait locus, osteoporosis, postmenopausal, bmnd, osteoporosis, involutional

Most common symptoms of OSTEOPOROSIS

  • Osteoporosis
  • Hypercalcemia
  • Hyperparathyroidism
  • Secondary hyperparathyroidism
