Isolated growth hormone deficiency after severe head trauma.

I Eichler¹, H Frisch, H G Eichler, W Soukop.

Abstract

In a 12-yr-old boy growth arrest occurred after severe head trauma. Evaluation of pituitary endocrine function revealed isolated growth hormone (GH) deficiency. Lack of GH response to GH-releasing factor indicated that the responsible lesion was most likely to be localized in the pituitary gland. GH substitution resulted in biochemical (somatomedin increase) and clinical (catch up growth) response.
