Bone And Mineral Disorders Flashcards
What are the biochemical findings of conginital hypoparathyroidism? (Inactivation of PTH gene)
Low: ca (urinary\serum), PTH, 1.25 vitamin D
High: Po4
What is the vitamin D dependant rickets type 1 and type 2
Type 1: alpha 1 hydroxylase deficiency
Type2: resistant in calcitrol gene receptors
When does type 1 vitamin d dependant ricket occut
Verrry early, 3-4 months
What is the 1.25 OH D and 25 OHD in type 1 and type 2 dependant ricket
Type 1: low 1.25
Type 2: high 1.25
Both of them normal 25 OHD
What is common in arabs, associated with baldness and unresponsive to vitamin D deficency treatment?
Type 2 resistant
Which type 1 or 2 in dependant ricket is more similar to nutritional Vitamain D deficency
Type1
What are the types of hypophosphatemic rickets?
Familial x-linked
Heriditary with hypercalciuria
What is the mutation in hypophosphatemic ricket types
- with hypercalciuria
- x-linked
- SLC4a3
- PHEX mutation causes increase FGF23
What is the inheretenece of heridetary hypophosphatemic w\calciuria vs familial hypophosphatemic ricket
- AD and AR
- X-linked
How does x-linked hypophosphatemic ricket occur?
Increase FGF32: causes phosphatouria.
What are the secondary rickets?
1- prematurity
2- renal
3- tumor induced osteomalacia
Why is rickets of prematurity?
1- Bone development is in the last 3 months of pregnancy
2- premature babies loose more PO4 in urine
What are the findings in renal tubular acidosis associated rickets
Ricket present with
1- Metabolic acidosis
2- Hyperchloremia (Cl)
3- Hypercalciruria (Ca)
What is the cause of renal tubular acidosis?
Failure to excrete hydrogen from distal tubule
What are the findings in renal osteodystrophy assocaited rickets?
- low 1.25 vitamin D
- hypocalcemia
- High serum PO4
What is the ooonly type of ricket with hiiiigh serum PO4
Renal osteodystropy
What are the findings in tumor induced osteomalacia
Hypophosphatemia
Low 1.25
Osteomalacia
Myopathy
What are the general signs and symptoms of rickets
- harrison sulcus
- delayed closure of fontanel
- risk of fracture
- tetany
- seizure
- dental changes
What are the bone deformities in rickets?
- bending of long bone
- rachitich rosary (bead like shape)
- marfan (distension of bone\cartilage)
- craniotabes
- genu varum
What are radiological finidngs of rickets?
- metaphysis of long bone: fraying, stippling, cupping
- epiphysises: wide
- severe: looser zone and fractures
- CXR: prominant costochondreal junction
What is the prophylactic dose of vitamin D therapy
- school: 1000
- infant: 600-800
Treatment of vitamin D deficient
150000
- normal: weekly 1 month
- severe weeklu 6-8m
What are the theraputic agents to consider in rickets?
1- vitamin D
2- calcium
3- phosphate
4-orthopedic sugery > 4 years s
What are the clinical features of conginital hypothyroidism
- hoarse cry & poor feeding & decreased activity
- constipation & hernia
- delayed skeletal maturation & large fontanel
- macroglossia & hyperbilli
