Two boys with congenital rubella and concomitant growth-hormone deficiency responded to human-growth-hormone replacement and have already (over a period of 18 mo) achieved a significant increase in height. The association of these two diagnoses requires recognition so that treatable endocrine disorders, which are becoming recognized more often in congenital rubella, are always positively excluded when affected children with inexplicable short stature are seen.
两名患有先天性风疹并伴有生长激素缺乏症的男孩对人生长激素替代治疗有反应,并且(在18个月的时间里)身高已显著增加。这两种诊断的关联需要得到认识,以便在诊治患有不明原因身材矮小的患病儿童时,能够始终积极排除先天性风疹中越来越常见的可治疗内分泌疾病。
