[Hormonal treatment of hypophyseal dwarfism, a cause of epiphyseolisthesis capitis femoris? (author's transl)].
Two cases of hypophyseal proportional dwarfism which were treated by hormones are reported. After the treatment had been finished the epiphyseal cartilage remained persistent over a long period. Moreover, in both patients an epiphyseolisthesis capitis femoris occurred in their third decennium. A causal nexus is discussed.
