Growth hormone insufficiency is a common cause of growth failure in children with the 18q-syndrome. Individuals with this syndrome have a deletion as large as 36 Mb from the long arm of chromosome 18. We have evaluated 33 children with this syndrome for growth hormone production and have identified
