Solve this instance: Abstract: Five children with chronic renal failure and severe rachitic deformities of the lower limbs were treated with 1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D (1 alpha-OHD3) for 16 to 53 months. There was symptomatic, biochemical and radiological improvement in all five children and operative correction of their deformities was not needed. We recommend a trial of treatment with 1 alpha-OHD3 for this condition before surgical procedures.
