Sign Out APPROACH TO A CHILD WITH SHORT STATURE UserName Password New Register Dr Swati Joshi, Lecturer (Endocrinology and Epilepsy) B J Wadia Hospital for Children, Mumbai. Growth is an important objective parameter of general health of a child. Definition: A child is considered short if :- His height is less than 3 rd percentile or 2 standard deviations below the mean height for that age. Even if the height is within normal percentiles but growth velocity is consistently below 25 th percentile over 6-12 months of observation. If the patient is excessively short for the mid-parental height, though his absolute height may be within the normal percentiles. Useful point to note : 80% of children with height less than 3SD below mean have pathologic Short Stature whereas 80% of children with height less than 2SD usually have normal variant Short Stature.

Bone Disorders Giantism is a condition of abnormally increased height that usually results from excessive cartilage and bone formation at the epiphyseal plates of long bones. The most common type of giantism, pituitary giantism, results from excess secretion of pituitary growth hormone. However, the large stature of some individuals can result from genetic factors rather than from abnormal levels of growth hormone. Acromegaly (ak'ro-meg'al-e) is also caused by excess pituitary growth hormone secretion. However, acromegaly involves growth of connective tissue, including bones, after the epiphyseal plates have ossified. The effect mainly involves increased diameter of all bones and is most strikingly apparent in the face and hands. Many pituitary giants also develop acromegaly later in life. Dwarfism, the condition in which a person is abnormally short, is the opposite of giantism. Pituitary dwarfism results when abnormally low levels of pituitary growth hormone affect the whole body, thus producing a small person who is normally proportioned. Achondroplastic (a-kon'dro-plas'tik) dwarfism, involving a disproportionate shortening of the long bones, is more common than proportionate dwarfing and produces a person with a nearly normal-sized trunk and head but shorter-than-normal limbs. Most cases of achondroplastic dwarfism are the result of genetic defects that cause deficient or improper growth of the cartilage model, especially the epiphyseal plate, and often involve deficient collagen synthesis. Often the cartilage matrix does not have its normal integrity, and the chondrocytes of the epiphysis cannot form their normal columns, even through rates of cell proliferation may be normal.
