A member asked:
High alkaline phosphatase but everything else normal. had a total replacement 1month ago. is this the reason or what else could be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varies: Alkaline phosphatase is an enzyme usually associated with bone turnover. If it is mildly elevated and normalizing, then it could potentially be related to your surgery. If it is highly elevated, then there may be other considerations, Paget's disease being just one possible consideration.
