O raquitismo é uma doença do crescimento ósseo causado pela diminuição de mineralização da matriz óssea nas placas de crescimento e ocorre apenas em crianças antes da fusão das epífises. Existem muitas causas para o raquitismo, incluindo distúrbios de vitamina D, deficiência de cálcio, deficiência de fósforo e acidose tubular renal distal. Com o aumento da taxa de sobrevivência de bebês de muito baixo peso ao nascer, o raquitismo nessa faixa etária se tornou um problema importante. | |||
