ABSTRACT
In adults, hypophosphatasia (HPP) may be revealed by fractures, mainly metatarsal and femoral, and by crystal-related joint diseases. Low alkaline phosphatase levels are often overlooked. There is no established treatment for adults but the diagnosis is important to prevent the use of therapies that promote bone resorption in this context of bone fragility.
