Abstract
A boy with a ring 18 chromosome karyotype was referred because of short stature; he had growth hormone deficiency and possible hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism. Many children with major chromosomal abnormalities are short, but this case emphasises the need to consider growth hormone deficiency in addition.
Keywords: Growth hormone, suspected gonadotrophin deficiency, and ring 18 chromosome.
