Popis: The therapeutic possibilities in malformative syndromes are basically surgical, rehabilitative and, in a few cases, pharmacologic. The possibilities of using drugs are limited to some hormonal disorders caused by diencephalic and hypophyseal dysfunctions with clinical signs appearing at the level of the various target organs. The clinical signs most commonly found are hypogonadism, short stature and obesity. The Authors discuss on the opportunity of the use of the growth hormone in syndromic patients with short stature.
