Wisconsin Endocrine Society Meeting 2018
This program will address the subject of X-Linked Hypophosphatemia with an overview of the latest pathophysiology and mechanisms involved with this disorder along with possible treatment options. This is a very important topic in Endocrine bone disorders and this program will provide new information and update practitioners on this disorder. New information is always being gained and applied in novel ways.

In both an academic and private practice setting, updates on any new endocrine topics are always welcome.
