Abstract
Hyperphosphatasemia is a genetic disorder of intramembranous bone formation which is radiographically similar to Paget's disease. The authors report a case of hyperphosphatasemia complicated by salt-losing congenital adrenal hyperplasia in a Puerto Rican child. Recognition of this condition is important because of the promising results with calcitonin therapy.
