A new hereditary syndrome of hypophosphatemic rickets and hypercalciuria was studied in 6 affected members of 1 kindred. In all patients, the manifestations of disease began in early childhood. The characteristic features are rickets, short stature, increased renal phosphate clearance (the ratio between the maximal tubular reabsorption rate for P and the glomerular filtration rate [TmP/GFR] is 2-4 SD, below the age-related mean), hypercalciuria (8.6 mg of urinary Ca/kg body wt per 24 h vs. the upper normal value of 4.0), normal serum Ca levels, increased gastrointestinal absorption of Ca and P, an elevated serum concentration of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (390 .+-. 99 pg/ml vs. the upper normal value of 110), and suppressed parathyroid function (an immunoreactive parathyroid hormone level of 0.33 .+-. 0.1 ng/ml and a cAMP level of 1.39 .+-. 0.12 nmol/dl glomerular filtrate vs. the lower normal values of 0.3 and 1.5, respectively). Long-term phosphate supplementation as the sole therapy resulted in reversal of all clinical and biochemical abnormalities except the decreased TmP/GFR. It is proposed that the pivotal defect in this syndrome is a renal phosphate leak resulting in hypophosphatemia with an appropriate elevation of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D levels, which causes increased Ca absorption, parathyroid suppression and hypercalciuria. This syndrome may represent 1 end of a spectrum of hereditary absorptive hypercalciuria. The importance of phosphate as a mediator in controlling 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D production in humans is supported.
