Is short stature always pathological and a problem?

{{c1::No! Lots of children will present with this and short stature can be:
  • A normal variant
  • Genetic e.g. short parents
  • Due to IntraUterine Growth Retardation (IUGR) or small for gestational age (SGA)
  • Constitutional growth delay e.g. delay in bone growth
