Two adolescent males and one adolescent female were referred for evaluation of short stature. Extensive laboratory studies, often performed over several years, were unremarkable. After several years of observation, the diagnosis of anorexia nervosa was established. We emphasize the necessity to consider anorexia nervosa in the differential diagnosis of growth retardation in young adolescents.
两名青春期男性和一名青春期女性因身材矮小前来接受评估。广泛的实验室检查通常持续数年，结果均无异常。经过数年观察，确诊为神经性厌食症。我们强调在青少年生长发育迟缓的鉴别诊断中考虑神经性厌食症的必要性。
