Russell-Silver syndrome, also called asymmetric dwarf dysgenesis syndrome is an uncommon genetic disorder presenting with low birth weight, failure to thrive and growth retardation (short stature), developmental delay, facial dysmorphism and hemihypertrophy. The estimated incidence is between 1 case in 3,000 to 1 case in 100,000 1.

Growth is an essential and continuous process in animate objects. Linear growth or height is considered synonymous to growth by most children and their parents. Any disturbance or faltering in height is thus, a frequent cause of concern for the family.

Growth Hormone & IGF Research, 2018
Adult height and growth patterns are largely genetically programmed. Studies in twins have indicated that the heritability of height is high (>80%), suggesting that genetic variation is the main determinant of stature. Height exhibits a normal (Gaussian) distribution according to sex, age, and ancestry.

The diagnostic term, idiopathic short stature, has emerged over the past 30 years and refers to children with short stature of unknown etiology. Controversy exists regarding the scope of the diagnosis and options for its treatment. This article reviews origins of the diagnosis idiopathic short stature and current diagnostic criteria, scientific ...

SXATUR~, the quantitative measure of height, varies widely within each ethnic group with a fairly normal distribution. Of the numerous patients whom the physi, clan encounters because of short stature, relatively few are pathologically small in the context of family and ethnic background.

Genetic evaluation of short stature
Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2011After a proper medical history, growth analysis and physical examination of a short child, followed by radiological and laboratory screening, the clinician may decide to perform genetic testing. We propose several clinical algorithms that can be used to establish the diagnosis.

Short Stature in Children [PDF]
The Egyptian Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2018 Short stature is a common problem in children. Short stature occurred due to many causes; these causes may be genetic, environmental or chronic diseases. Diagnosis of short stature could be achieved by two combined ways, physical examination, and laboratory tests. Treatment of short stature depends on the right diagnoses and the causative agent.

CLONIDINE TREATMENT FOR SHORT STATURE
The Lancet, 198734 pubertal children with constitutional growth delay (CGD) were treated with clonidine orally twice a day. In 25 of the children the height velocity rose on clonidine treatment, and in 21 of them by more than 2 cm/yr during the first 6 months of treatment (mean [SD] growth increment 4.4 [0.5] cm/yr).

Psychosocial effects of short stature
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2006The treatment of children with short stature was revolutionized by the creation of recombinant growth hormone therapy. While it cannot be denied that therapy adds significant height to children who are growth hormone deficient, such treatment is both painful, requiring many injections for years, as well as extremely expensive, both for the children's ...
