ADOLESCENT RACHITIS. ETIOLOGY AND PATHOLOGY

A Study Based Upon Clinical, Pathological, Microscopic, Chemical and Roentgenographical Findings.

ALEXANDER EARLE HORWITZ A. M., M. D.

Our conclusions will thus be that the disease is a recrudescence of a disturbance which existed in childhood; that this relighting is due to a disturbance in nutrition at the time of great bone activity; that the pathological histological changes approach those seen in the infantile type and that the development of the genitalia is an important factor in the nutritional disturbances at this period.
