Zusammenfassung
Das Wachstum stellt einen Schwerpunkt der alltäglichen pädiatrischen Praxis dar. Der häufigste Vorstellungsgrund in einer endokrinologischen Sprechstunde ist der Kleinwuchs. Etwa 75% dieser Patienten zeigen eine somatische Entwicklungsverzögerung, welche hauptsächlich konstitutionell (genetisch) bedingt ist. Diese Patientengruppe ist relativ leicht durch anamnestische, klinische und radiologische Kriterien von anderen schwierigeren endokrinologischen und nichtendokrinologischen Kleinwuchsformen zu differenzieren.
