A 40-year-old Japanese woman presented to our hospital with general fatigue and muscle weakness. She had a history of premature loss of deciduous teeth at 4 years old, her serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was as low as 91 U/L, and radiologic studies revealed thoracic deformity and sacroiliac calcification. Genetic sequencing revealed a heterozygous c.1559delT mutation in the tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase gene (ALPL). Based on these findings, she was diagnosed with hypophosphatasia (HPP), and treatment with asfotase alfa, a recombinant human tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP), was initiated. After six months of treatment with asfotase alfa, improvements were observed in the SF-36 score, six-minute walk distance, and grasping power. Although the overdiagnosis needs to be avoided, HPP should be considered in patients with undiagnosed musculoskeletal symptoms and a low serum ALP activity.
