Abstract
We describe a case of mesenchymal tumor induced osteomalacia. Our patient presented a typical clinical and radiological picture of osteomalacia, with low serum phosphate. With the excision of the tumor, which was located in the right forearm, the serum phosphate concentrations increased to normal values within a week postoperatively and the symptoms improved dramatically.
