摘要
Growth hormone has been used in the treatment of patients with idiopathic short stature. Clinical and laboratorial criteria are discussed, taking into consideration the indication of GH and the evaluation of its efficacy and individual responsiveness. Anthropometric, psychosocial, ethical, and also cost/benefit aspects must be considered before GH prescription in idiopathic short stature patients.
