Go To Main Page Alternate Names : Silver Syndrome, Silver-Russell 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. 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.

Inheritance patterns This is not yet fully determined. It has been suggested that while most cases are sporadic, some cases may be X-linked or autosomal dominant. However there is a congenital association between siblings which may result from placental insufficiency. Such placental problems may be hereditary. Prenatal diagnosis There is no biochemical diagnosis but serial ultrasound assessments starting from early pregnancy will confirm intra-uterine growth retardation Medical text last updated October 2001 by Dr R Stanhope, Consultant Paediatric Endocrinologist, Great Ormond Street Hospital, London, UK.

Associated persons: Alexander Russell Henry K. Silver Description: A syndrome of intra-uterine dwarfism with low birth weight characterized by short stature, skeletal asymmetry, relatively large skull with triangular shaped head, small incurved little fingers, characteristic facies, precocious sexual development. Renal and/or ureteral defects and mental retardation may occur in some cases. Café au lait macules are present in nearly half the cases. Nephroblastoma can be a complication. No sex preponderance. The mode of inheritance is unknown. Some authors separate the Russell and Silver syndromes as independent entities, the Russell syndrome being a similar disturbance, but not asymmetric. However, Russell's and Silver's are now considered the same entity. An affected individual is known as the Russell dwarf.
