The consequent deficiency of active vitamin D disrupts calcium\u2013phosphate homeostasis and causes rickets. Although VDDR1A is monogenic, clinical severity may vary considerably even among patients with the same mutation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case Presentation<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We describe two unrelated Saudi boys with genetically confirmed VDDR1A who both harbored the same homozygous CYP27B1 c.1286G\u2009&gt;\u2009C (p.Arg429Pro) variant but exhibited markedly different clinical courses. The first child presented at 7\u2009months of age with hypocalcemic seizures and classical radiographic features of rickets but preserved growth. Early initiation of alphacalcidol and calcium supplementation was associated with biochemical improvement, resolution of seizures, and favorable clinical recovery by 2.5\u2009years of age. In contrast, the second child was diagnosed at 16\u2009months after developmental delay, recurrent respiratory infections, growth failure, and early skeletal deformities. Long\u2010term follow\u2010up into adolescence revealed severe bowing deformities, kyphoscoliosis, osteopenia, and healed fractures in the setting of delayed diagnosis and inconsistent treatment adherence, despite receiving the same therapy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>These cases highlight substantial phenotypic variability in VDDR1A even in children harboring the same CYP27B1 mutation.
