Q

pathophysiology of rickets

A
  1. proliferation without ossification
  2. epiphysis : failure of ca and ph depostion in the cartilage cells leading fo excess cartilage that invade the metaphysis(broadening and fraying
  3. diaphysis : bone rarefaction and fracture

Q

why ca is usually normal in rickets

  2. hypocalcemic tetany
23
Q

causes of hypocalcemia in rickets

A

parathyriod gland exhaustion
bone depletion: prolonged untreated
vit D:IM massive dose ; due to rapid mobilization of ca from blood to bone

24
Q

massive dose of vit D lead to hypocalciema

A

rapid mobilization of ca from blood to bone

35
Q

investigations in rickets
