In this short, chaptered video programme, Dr Chad Deal, Head of the Center for Osteoporosis and Metabolic Bone Disease at the Cleveland Clinic, shares practical insights to help clinicians identify patients with hypophosphatasia (HPP).
Despite being a lifelong metabolic condition, HPP is often under-recognised, especially in adults. Dr Deal discusses the importance of distinguishing HPP from other musculoskeletal and rheumatic diseases that HPP commonly disguises itself as, including osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, pseudogout, and arthritis-like conditions1-5. He also explains how understanding the clinical presentation, recognising HPP signs and symptoms, and taking a detailed patient and family history can support timely diagnosis and appropriate care.
