We have observed that one in three patients admitted to the Neurological Rehabilitation Ward for Children and Adolescents due to a syndrome or disease associated with neurodysfunction is short of stature for their age. In order to identify the relationship between growth defects (short stature) and syndromes or diseases associated with neurodysfunction, we analyzed data collected during admission to the Neurological Rehabilitation Ward for Children and Adolescents. The study applied a retrospective analysis of data collected during hospitalization of 327 children and adolescents, aged 4-18 years, affected by congenital disorders of the nervous system and/or neurological syndromes associated with a minimum of one neurodysfunction. Two assessment systems were taken into account - one system traditionally applied, and another one in accordance with indications approved by the Food and Drug Administration, related to diagnosing short stature. The findings show more frequent co-occurrence of, as well as statistically significant correlations between, short stature in certain groups: operated myelomeningocele with hydrocephalus in the subgroup of neural tube defects (p = 0.029), tetraplegia in the subgroup of spastic cerebral palsy (p < 0.001), and hypothyroidism (p = 0.04) in the entire study group.
