PG - 11-6 LID - 10.1297/cpe.14.11 [doi] AB - Haploinsufficiency of the short stature homeobox-containing (SHOX) gene causes Turner skeletal features, a certain proportion of idiopathic short stature and Leri-Weill dyschondrosteosis (LWD). Here we report a Japanese female with LWD. Her physical growth, skeletal deformity, and endocrine status were recorded longitudinally. She exhibited a constant growth rate (average + 6.2 cm/yr) from 6 to 9 yr old, followed by a downward shift at 10 yr old. Her final height was 135 cm (-4.4 SD for an adult female) and weight was 50.5 kg (-0.3 SD) at 12 yr and 10 mo old. Mesomelia and cubitus valgus were noticed from 2 yr old, and metaphyseal lucency and epiphyseal hypoplasia of the medial side of the distal radius were detected at 6 yr old. Madelung deformity was obvious at 10 yr old, when menarche occurred. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis demonstrated a single copy of the SHOX gene. The short stature of the patient was thought to be exaggerated by the combination of SHOX haploinsufficiency and relatively early puberty.
