Summary
Objectives: Childhood osteoporosis is often a consequence of a chronic disease or its treatment. Lysinuric protein intolerance (LPI), a rare secondary cause of the osteoporosis, is an autosomal recessive disorder with clinical features ranging from minimal protein intolerance to severe multisystemic involvement. We report a case diagnosed to have LPI using a Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) panel and evaluate the utility of reverse phenotyping.
