Abstract

A 28-year-old man with chronic hydrocephalus due to aqueductal stenosis was found to have a subnormal response of growth hormone to arginine infusion. It is postulated that compression of the pituitary by the enlarged third ventricle produced a deficiency of growth hormone and short stature.

摘要

一名28岁因中脑导水管狭窄导致慢性脑积水的男性，被发现其生长激素对精氨酸输注的反应低于正常水平。据推测，扩大的第三脑室对垂体的压迫导致了生长激素缺乏和身材矮小。
