Background Oncogenic osteomalacia term used for tumor-induced (TIO) is a paraneoplastic syndrome of abnormal phosphate metabolism secondary to ectopic endocrine tumors. The diagnosis often becomes difficult due rarity occurrence and deficient literature. reconstruction following resection has its own technical difficulties, which are addressed in this article. Presentation Case A 39-year-old fe...

Oncogenic osteomalacia (OOM) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome associated with mesenchymal tumours. It is characterised by phosphaturia, hypophosphataemia, decreased serum Vitamin D3 levels and severe osteomalacia. OOM-inducing tumours are usually benign, arising either from bone or soft tissue, with extremities and craniofacial region being the most common sites. Surgical resection of the tumo...

Roughly half of the femoral fracture patients diagnosed with AFF according to the criteria suggested by a task force of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) have not undergone bisphosphonate (BP) therapy. One suspected cause of such fractures is severe bone loss due to osteomalacia, but the pathogenesis remains unknown. We report a case of an 84-year-old woman with AFF not...

Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is a constellation of syndromes arising from different derangements of tubular acid transport. Recent advances in the biology of urinary acidification have allowed us to discern various molecular mechanisms responsible for these syndromes. RTA often presents as renal stone disease with nephrocalcinosis, ricket/osteomalacia and growth retardation in children with ult...

A 60-year-old woman suffered from recurrent femur neck fracture. Laboratory data showed serum hypophosphatemia, elevated alkaline phosphatase, normal serum calcium levels, and normal parathyroid hormone levels. Radiological examinations revealed a tumor in the right maxillary alveolar bone. The nasal cavity mass was removed, and the histological features were those of glomangiopericytoma. After...

Electromyographic studies in 15 women with nutritional osteomalacia and proximal muscle weakness showed brief duration motor unit action potentials of normal amplitude and increased proportion of polyphasic motor unit potentials in the majority of them. By employing quantitative methods of electromyography, more positive results were obtained, thus reducing the sampling data. The histology show...
