Popis: Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS) is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by severe intrauterine and postnatal growth retardation and typical dysmorphic features including body asymmetry, relative macrocephaly, protruding forehead, and feeding difficulties. Previous descriptions of SRS focus on the management of specific issues in children. Herein, we present clinical and metabolic characteristics of an adult woman with SRS accompanied by gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Given the rare circumstances presented in our case, the emerging questions concerning the management of metabolic issues and fertility potential in adult SRS patient deserve more attention. Further, long-term follow up is essential to gain future insights into the natural history and optimal management in adulthood.
