โœฆ Synopsis

We describe the first proven Occurrence of growth hormone deficiency in an individual with the Rothmund-Thomson syndrome. This was suspected because of the patient's severely retarded growth and bone age and her failure to respond normally to growth hormone stimulation testing with I-DOPA, arginine, and growth hormone releasing factor. In addition, we have briefly reviewed other genetic and malformation syndromes that have been found associated with growth hormone deficiency. We recommend that growth hormone deficiency be considered in these syndromes, especially when the growth failure is more marked than expected.

The 18qุŠ syndrome is one of the commonest deletion syndromes. Clinical characteristics are variable but may include: hypotonia, tapered digits, "carp-like" mouth, mental retardation, and hearing impairment. Growth failure (GF; both weight and height <3%) was reported in 80% of affected individuals.
