Tumor-induced osteomalacia with elevated fibroblast growth factor 23: a case of phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor mixed with connective tissue variants and review of the literature

Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), or oncogenic osteomalacia (OOM), is a rare acquired Paraneoplastic disease characterized by renal phosphate wasting and hypophosphatemia.
