This study found that intravenous high dose calcium infusions followed by high dose oral calcium effectively treated vitamin D dependent rickets type II, leading to complete biochemical and radiological healing and improved growth in two patients.

This article compares two rare genetic diseases, vitamin D-dependent rickets type 1 and type 2, focusing on their similar presentations of hypocalcemia and rickets in infancy, but reports no new clinical results.

This case study reported that absence of alopecia does not reliably predict responsiveness to vitamin D treatment in Vitamin D-dependent rickets type II, as demonstrated by a patient with normal hair growth who showed extreme resistance.

This review discusses inherited forms of vitamin D-dependent rickets and explains their genetic and metabolic causes but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report observed that while a 4-year-old boy with vitamin D-dependent rickets type II showed biochemical and bone improvement after vitamin D and calcium treatment, his alopecia did not improve.
