Summary

Short stature in children is an urgent problem, while pediatricians underestimate the information content of anthropometric indicators, as a result of which a number of endocrine and non-endocrine diseases accompanied by growth retardation are diagnosed late. The article presents a clinical case of growth hormone treatment of a child with short stature of mixed origin. Attention is focused on diagnosis and modern principles of replacement therapy. In recent decades, with timely detection, this pathology can be treated quite successfully. Currently, the list of nosologies for which the use of recombinant growth hormone is possible has been significantly expanded, and the task of a pediatrician is to conduct anthropometric and laboratory screening of patients with short stature for subsequent referral to a pediatric endocrinologist and geneticist.
