Hand radiographs in Russell-Silver syndrome
TE Herman, JD Crawford, RH Cleveland and DC Kushner Left-hand radiographs were analyzed for bone age of 15 patients with Russell-Silver syndrome. No single finding was pathognomonic. However, in children between 2 and 10 years of age, the concordance of significantly delayed maturation, clinodactyly, fifth middle or distal phalangeal hypoplasia, ivory epiphyses, and a second metacarpal pseudoepiphyses is suggestive and should prompt a search for the well- recognized clinical features of this condition.

Hoeven Signs Bill To Increase Coverage For Those Diagnosed With Russell-Silver Syndrome
BISMARCK, N.D. - Gov. John Hoeven today signed into law Senate Bill 2395 at a bill signing attended by Sens. Judy Lee and Dwight Cook, Reps. RaeAnn Kelsch and Dwight Wrangham, members of the Senate Human Services Committee and the Zietz family. Laikyn Zietz was diagnosed with Russell-Silver Syndrome shortly after birth. SB 2395 was passed by the North Dakota Legislature to provide funding for medical food and growth hormone treatment for those diagnosed with Russell-Silver Syndrome. The bill authorizes the Department of Human Services to provide up to $50,000 per child each biennium to cover prescription and dietary expenses for individuals through the age of 18, regardless of income and at no cost to them. Russell-Silver Syndrome is a rare, inherited metabolic disorder that prevents the body from producing growth hormones. The body is unable to metabolize amino acids essential to building proteins, affecting growth and development.

Russell-Silver syndrome
Definition: Rusell-Silver syndrome is a congenital disease (present at birth) characterized by short stature and, frequently, asymmetry in the size of the two halves or other parts of the body.
Alternative Names: Silver-Russell syndrome; Silver syndrome
Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Genetic problems are thought to cause this syndrome, although the specific gene(s) remain to be discovered. The pattern of inheritance has not been determined, but in most cases it seems to occur without any family history of the condition. Children with Russell-Silver syndrome are born small and generally achieve less than 5 feet at adult height. Side-to-side asymmetry is fairly common. For example, a left body part may be larger than the right counterpart. This asymmetry may occur anywhere including the face. Other characteristics include excessive sweating , a small triangular face that makes the skull look large by comparison, inward curving 5th fingers, and colored spots on the skin called cafe-au-lait spots

chromosomal Mosaicism HOME TABLE OF CONTENTS SEARCH BACKGROUND ... GLOSSARY Chromosome specific Trisomy TRISOMY 7 MOSAICISM Complete trisomy 7 has never been reported in a liveborn child. Trisomy 7 is one of the most common aneuploidies detected on chorionic villus sampling . In general, prenatal detection of trisomy 7 is associated with a good outcome. However maternal UPD 7 is strongly associated with severe growth restriction placenta (CPM) appears to be primarily of mitotic origin, resulting from somatic duplication of chromosome 7. This explains the generally good outcome in the majority of cases. Given the mitotic origin the risk of fetal UPD 7 is low. Kalousek et al (1996) showed that CPM for trisomy 7 with biparental inheritance has no adverse effect on fetal growth. Thus, CVS alone is a poor predictor of pregnancy outcome for trisomy 7. When CVS is combined with DNA studies to reveal the origin of CPM (mitotic or meiotic) and parental origin of the chromosome 7s, a more reliable prediction for pregnancy outcome can be discussed (Kalousek et al, 1996). X Y Monosomy X Triploidy / Tetraploidy Trisomy 7 detected on CVS Sachs et al (1990) reported on 5 cases of trisomy 7 mosaicism. In these cases the percentage of abnormal cells measured on CVS direct studies ranged from 5%-68%. In all 5 cases the pregnancies resulted in a normal outcome.

russellsilver syndrome is another type of dwarfism, although less common. Sometimes doctors refer to russell-silver syndrome as silver-russell syndrome
http://www.buradley.com/rss/rssstory.htm
Russell-Silver Syndrome - A Story I created this article for two distinct purposes. First, I wanted to have a way to inform those who were unaware of Russell-Silver syndrome. Second, and most important, I wanted to create an informative and concise summary of Russell-Silver syndrome for parents with newly born or diagnosed RSS children. I intend this article to an overview of the syndrome. If you want more detailed information on this subject, You can research more on your own. The bibliography located at the end of this manual can get you started on the right track. If, in the course of reading this manual, you run across words you don't know, please refer to the glossary at the end. You may wish to glance over the glossary first is you are unfamiliar with medical terminology related to dwarfism and Russell-Silver syndrome.
Defining Russell-Silver Syndrome When the average American thinks of a dwarf, they usually picture a person with a normal sized torso and head, but with shortened limbs, looking like the characters from the movie Willow . This type of dwarfism, known as Acondroplasia, is only one of the nearly 300 diagnosable dwarfisms known to modern medicine. Russell-Silver syndrome is another type of dwarfism, although less common. Both Dr. A. Russell and Dr. H. K. Silver first diagnosed Russell-Silver syndrome (abbreviated RSS) separately in the mid 1960's. The two doctor's findings were later combined to one diagnoses. Sometimes doctors refer to Russell-Silver syndrome as Silver-Russell syndrome. I will get into the differences in these names later.

70. What Is Russell-Silvers Syndrome?
As a result, the syndrome received its name. russellsilver syndrome (RSS) isalso known as silver-russell syndrome, silver syndrome, and russell syndrome.
http://www.buradley.com/rss/desc.htm
Russell-Silver Syndrome In 1953 and 1954, respectively, Dr. H. K. Silver and Dr. A. Russell independently described a special group of IUGR (Intrauterine Growth Retardation) children with short stature along with a small triangular face, low-set ears, incurved fifth fingers, and other characteristics. Their independent and varied findings were eventually determined to be a variation of the same syndrome. (A syndrome is a group of physical signs and symptoms which make up a specific disease or disorder.) As a result, the syndrome received its name. Russell-Silver Syndrome (RSS) is also known as Silver-Russell Syndrome, Silver Syndrome, and Russell Syndrome. One of the interesting and at the same time unsettling aspects of this syndrome is the very wide variation of its characteristics. Some individuals with RSS have many of the documented traits, while others have very few. Mental retardation is not characteristic of this disorder.

Excessive sweating as a baby, especially at night, and a greyness or pallor of the skin.
