A patient with the unusual combination of fibrous dysplasia of bone and Vitamin D resistant
rickets is described. Studies performed provide evidence for normal gastrointestinal
absorption of calcium, low renal tubular maximum of phosphate reabsorption (TmP), and
elevated phosphate clearance responsive to alterations in serum calcium level. Possible
mechanisms underlying these disorders are discussed.
