Abstract
An adult female with typical features of Silver-Russell dwarfism gave birth to a viable infant. Despite the abnormalities in sexual development that may be associated with the Silver-Russell syndrome, fertility is not necessarily impaired, at least in females. The growth and development of children with the Silver-Russell syndrome were studied. There is virtually no information available about adult patients with this syndrome. Both male and female Silver-Russell dwarfs develop secondary sexual characteristics but fertility of these patients was not described previously.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
