Solitary maxillary central incisor and short stature.
Seven patients, three males and four females, each with a single (unpaired) deciduous and permanent maxillary central incisor, were studied. All the males and two the female children were growth hormone deficient. One adult woman and a female infant with a single maxillary central incisor were short in stature but had normal growth hormone responses. No other dental anomalies or pituitary-hypothalamic dysfunctions were found. The dental anomaly was not familial. No eye abnormalitis were present in the patients or their families.
