Int J Cardiol. 1984 Mar;5(3):379-81. doi: 10.1016/0167-5273(84)90118-9.

We present a patient with postural hypotension and labile blood pressure due to severe hypophosphatemia. There was no evidence for other causes of postural hypotension in our patient. The blood pressure abnormalities responded to phosphate replacement.
