  • Title: Evaluation of the child with growth retardation.
    Author: Brunader RE, Moore DC.
    Journal: Am Fam Physician; 1987 Feb; 35(2):165-76. PubMed ID: 3812171.
    Abstract:
    Although growth retardation usually has a nonpathologic cause, it can be the primary symptom of a number of underlying organic disease. The family physician can evaluate growth retardation with confidence by using the history and physical examination, screening tests, comparisons of chronologic age, bone age and height age, and prior anthropometric measurements.
