Abstract

Rickets is the disease of a growing skeleton and results from impaired apoptosis of hypertrophic chondrocytes and mineralization of the growth plate. Nutritionally induced rickets, secondary to vitamin D and/or calcium deficiency, remains a major global problem. In this review, we discuss pathogenesis, clinical signs, investigation and management of nutritional rickets.
