Both frank hypophosphatemia and low-normophosphatemia are associated with increased FD-related complications. This supports FGF23-mediated hypophosphatemia as a driver of skeletal morbidity, which may impact a larger proportion of the FD/MAS population than previously recognized. These findings will allow clinicians to identify at-risk patients, and will inform the development of prospective studies to determine optimal therapeutic targets.
