Nutritional rickets & osteomalacia: A practical approach to management
Defective mineralization of the growth plate and preformed osteoid result in rickets and osteomalacia, respectively. The leading cause of rickets worldwide is solar vitamin D deficiency and/or dietary calcium deficiency collectively termed as nutritional

Abstract Rickets is the clinical consequence of impaired mineralization of bone matrix throughout the growing skeleton in children, whilst osteomalacia is the result of this disturbance after the growth plates have fused in adults. The three major causes of rickets and osteomalacia are vitamin D deficiency, renal tubular dysfunction, and abnormalities
