X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) may present in childhood with rickets and bone deformities, or in adulthood with muscle weakness, bone pain, fractures. Dental abscesses and enthesopathy (due to calcification of tendons and ligaments) may also be present. ADHR usually has incomplete penetrance and has variable age of onset.
