Transient Hyperphosphatasemia Due to Pomegranate Juice

Abstract

In most cases, feeding problems in young children are mild and of no consequence. However, it is one of the situations that generate more anxiety in parents and can lead them to incorrect feeding patterns. We present the case of a 20-month-old male child who came to the emergency room with a pathological elevation of alkaline phosphatase secondary to an error in his dietary pattern.
