Vitamin D deficiency rickets is a metabolic disorder of growing bone, which is still important nutritional problem in developing countries. Recently we had expirienced 2 cases of typical vitamin D deficiency rickets, who were fed with only thin rice gruels and not fed any nutrient diets, breast milk, vitamin D supplements and almostly not to be exposured to sunlight for a long period of time due to poor socio-economic condition. Treatments were consisted of 600,000 units of vitamin D injection, high protein, high calorie diets and frequent exposures to sunlight. All of two were improved in clinical and laboratory findings after above therapy.
