Phosphorus and calcium metabolism has been revolutionised over the last decade by new knowledge, both in physiology and in pathology, with the description of new hormones, new regulation pathways and new genetic diseases.

The field of phosphorus and calcium diseases covers highly varied diseases, from neonatal disorders to genetic diseases that manifest in adolescence or adulthood, from hypocalcaemic convulsions to kidney stone disorders, and including rickets, subcutaneous calcifications, and certain bone diseases.

Many different specialties are at the intersection of this new multidisciplinary vision: paediatricians (endocrinologists, nephrologists, rheumatologists, etc.), adult physicians, surgeons, geneticists, biologists, radiologists, dentists, researchers.
