During a visit, you
noted a 7-year-old girl to be growing poorly. She has had a
minimal increase in
height during the last 2 years, but her weight continues to
rack at the 25th
percentile. The mother reports that her daughter is a picky
eater but is
otherwise well. The girl has no constipation, diarrhea or other sign
of malabsorption. Her parents are not
concerned because her mother is 5 feet,
1 inch (155cm) tall and her father is
5 feet, 6 inches (168cm) tall, and both had
delayed puberty and had growth
spurts in their late teenage years.
