Abstract excerpt
AIM: To explore the phenotype and response to growth hormone in patients with heterozygous mutations in the insulin-like growth factor I receptor gene (IGF1R). METHODS: Children with short stature, microcephaly, born SGA combined with biochemical sign of IGF-I insensitivity were analysed for IGF1R mutations or deletions using Sanger sequencing and Multiple ligation-dependent probe amplification analysis. RESULTS:...
