| Description |
The development of multiple sclerosis (MS) is multifactorial. Elevated levels of vitamin D may lower the risk and reduce relapses by immunomodulatory mechanisms (1). Conversely, Vitamin D-dependent rickets (VDDR), an inheritable form of rickets secondary to impairment in vitamin D synthesis or action, may increase MS risk. This has been described in 3 patients with VDDR type 1 (2). Here, we present a patient with VDDR type 2 who subsequently developed MS. |
