Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2001 Abstract Idiopathic short stature (ISS) is a term used to describe the status of children with short stature that cannot be attributed to a specific cause. Many children diagnosed as having ISS have partial GH insensitivity, which can result from disturbances at various points of the GH-IGF-I axis.

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.

Genetic evaluation of short stature
Best Practice and Research in Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2011 After 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.

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.

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.

In the paper it was identified firstly the short stature, then importance of anamnesis, physical examination, anthropometric measurements and calculated parameters of growth. Then followed the classification of causes for short stature with a specific review on differentiation of normal from pathologic variants.

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 ...

Short stature is defined as a height less than those in the second percentile for age and sex on the appropriate growth chart. Abnormalities of growth may be detected earlier by assessing growth velocity. Specialists refer to an absolute height for which the z score is <−2 SDs for age, or a linear growth velocity with a z score <−1 SDs for age.
