Hypophosphatémies génétiquement déterminées chez l’adulte

Abstract

Hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets groups together X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH), autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR) and hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets with hypercalciuria (HHRH, autosomal recessive). Clinical and biological characteristics and treatment depend on specific etiology. Mutations causing hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets involve PHEX located on Xp11.22 for XLH and FGF-23 located on 12p13 for ADHR. The gene involved in HHRH remains unknown: candidates may encode proteins that modulate phosphate transporter expression or activity. Others forms of rickets must be ruled out: acquired hypophosphatemia due to oncogenic osteomalacia, X-linked recessive hypophosphatemic rickets or Dent's disease, and hereditary 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets with a defect either in the 1-alpha-hydroxylase gene (pseudo-vitamin D deficiency rickets, PDDR) or in the vitamin D receptor (hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, HVDRR).
