Vitamin D status after resection of ileum in childhood.

M A Preece, H B Valman
PMCID: PMC1544454  PMID: 1147668

Abstract

Serum 25-hydroxycholecaliciferol levels and x-rays of the wrist were normal in children who had had extensive resections of ileum and no supplementary vitamin D for considerable periods. These results suggest that normal vitamin D status occurs in the absence of the ileum and that supplementary vitamin D is unnecessary.
