  • Title: Growth-hormone deficiency in congenital rubella.
    Author: Preece MA, Kearney PJ, Marshall WC.
    Journal: Lancet; 1977 Oct 22; 2(8043):842-4. PubMed ID: 72194.
    Abstract:
    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.
