Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Laron Syndrome (LS) is a rare hereditary disease of dwarfism occurring with few exceptions in Jewish, Muslim and Asian populations or their descendants spread over all continents. It is caused by deletions or mutations in the GH-Receptor gene resulting in high serum levels of a structurally and biologically normal, but inactive GH and low to undetectable IGF-I. <h4>Aim:</h4> To summarize the...
