Several case studies of individuals afflicted with monogenic disorders, such as X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), demonstrate the strong association of fibroblast growth factor 23-related hypophosphatemia with OPLL, suggesting that pathogenic variants in PHEX, ENPP1, and DMP1 are associated with FGF23-phosphate wasting phenotype and strong genetic factors placing patients at risk for OPLL. Here, FGF23 is linked to X-linked hypophosphatemia.
