Neonatal hypophosphatemia

Vitamin D-resistant rickets is a genetic defective disease of the renal tubules, which has two types of hypophosphatemia and hypocalcemia. Familial hypophosphatemic rickets are due to renal tubular defects, and the kidneys lose phosphorus, causing calcium and phosphorus metabolism disorders, causing rickets. The genetic method is sex-linked dominant inheritance, which has no response to normal physiological doses of vitamin D, so it is also called anti-vitamin D rickets and sex-linked hypophosphatemia.
