RESUMEN
La baja talla en la infancia es una causa frecuente de derivación al endocrinólogo infantil, y corresponde la mayoría de las veces a variantes normales del crecimiento. Inicialmente la terapéutica con hormona de crecimiento humana estaba circunscripta a los niños que presentaban deficiencia de dicha hormona. A partir de la producción de la hormona recombinante humana por ingeniería genética se pudo ampliar su uso a otras patologías.
ABSTRACT
Short stature in children is a common cause for referral to pediatric endocrinologists, corresponding most times to normal variants of growth. Initially growth hormone therapy was circumscribed to children presenting growth hormone deficiency. Since the production of recombinant human hormone its use had spread to other pathologies.
