ABSTRACT

Transient hyperphosphatasemia (TH) is a benign and selflimited condition in which serum levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) are elevated in the absence of other diseases. It is more frequent in children and infants. The differential diagnosis include liver, kidney, bone, intestinal and blood diseases. In this report we present one patient with transient hyperphosphatasemia and provide a review of this disease, which is rarely in clinical practice. The awareness of this condition will avoid unnecessary concerns and investigations.
