Medical Management of Hypophosphatasia: Review of Data on Asfotase Alfa
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare, dento-osseous disorder caused by impaired activity of tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP), a key enzyme in tissue mineralization. This review provides a clinical perspective on the current medical treatment
