[The null effect of Somatrem during typhoid fever].
The simultaneous occurrence of typhoid fever in a child with an idiopathic growth hormone insufficiency treated with Somatrem, produced a lack of response to the recombinant hormone, evidenced by a lack of growth during the acute disease. It is concluded that the administration of Somatrem should be suspended during the simultaneous occurrence of any severe illness.
